The thing is that you can see the dynamics and relationships that are there without thinking of it as a plausible OT3

like, yes, there's a huge undercurrent running through... pretty much the whole Ponds era under Moffat of complex relationships between the three of them, most obviously the way the show keeps returning to the possibility of Amy being attracted to the Doctor. and I think the familial connection w/ River underlines that dimension of the show as well. but (a) it's pretty clearly problematized within the show - IE, as much as the show keeps returning to it, it's always very insistent at least on a conscious level that Amy and Rory are together and the Doctor isn't in it - in other words, it more or less explicitly denies the possibility of an OT3 and (b) at least for me personally, the way that the show keeps returning to that possibility is one of the biggest weaknesses of the era and one of the things that really goes a long way to sabotage season 6 and, really, the Pond companion era as a whole.

so while I definitely agree that there's something there textually, I think you pretty much have to rewrite all of canon - not in the sense where you're adding something that's not there, but actually completely altering the dynamics on screen. And the idea of doing so is really unappealing to me personally because of what the storylines and character arcs were doing. Ship what you want to ship obv but there are pretty good reasons for not regarding it as a good OT3 IMO
