It's because the timeline is stretched; the Bronze Age collapse hit Mesopotamia in the last stages, by the time Abraham left, it was already dwindling (maybe why he left in the first place).
Indeed, the Sea Peoples were resettled by the Egyptian Pharaoh after their defeat in the Nile delta and they were moved to Canaan, particularly Philistine - but this is at the start of the Iron Age.
The assumption is that Abraham arrived as the Iron Age began or a few decades after that.
Scholars dismissing that because it's fact? Egyptians well documented their stuff, in fact it's only how we know of the Sea Peoples, other than verbal accounts of story.
The narrative to whitewash people that lived there prior to Abraham is used today as some sort of birthright and justification to genocide Palestinians.
