I kind of think this is a bit wanky of you, OP, but I also understand your mentality, because this is exactly the kind of thing I would do in my fandoms with heated ship wars, where people would argue "I never got A/B because they act like brother/sister together. They have no chemistry!" or "But the age difference with A/C is creepy. Them having a relationship would be statutory rape" or "I can understand X/Y in a dark, dysfunctional sense, but making it romantic would just be whitewashing Y's character. That's why Z is so much better, because they actually treat X with respect" (and so forth and so on).

Like, trying to feel validated for or justify never digging a pairing often comes off as guilt-tripping other people for being capable of liking that pairing. Trying to justify why a pairing you like is okay often ends up alienating people who don't like it.

Even when people state that they want to ship and let ship, by saying certain pairings are "creepy (to you)" or "make/don't make sense (to you)" or are "more progressive/morally good/etc. (IMO)", it still implies the people who ship/don't ship the pairing are creepy, illogical, or immoral for doing/not doing so. I wish I knew how to balance this need for validation vs. the desire not to be rude to others, but I don't.
