The plot holes are distracting because the movie sucks
The inconsistencies with why some non-human items are alive and some are not, the question of when these items become councious, etc. - this kind of flawed logic is typical for cartoons. Toy Story for example has the same holes.
But Toy Story is a great film; when a movie is entertaining, the suspension of disbelief works. I think the reason why people are so critical of this logic that is typical for cartoons, is that the movie is not funny or entertaining, which makes the plot holes much more distracting.
