There's something dismissive about it - the reason it's not applied to rock, soul and so on is that those are rich and complex things that can't be perfected, unlike pop, which clever indie people can master alongside their fearsome indie skills.
Many of the things I've seen described as perfect pop don't strike me as remotely perfect or, often, even good pop.
