I don't think it's really reasonable to leap to homophobia if someone's squicked over a ship that pairs a character who was being overtly predatory with the target of that predatory behavior.

Silva wielded his apparent sexuality as a weapon against Bond in an attempt to disquiet him and drive home their relative stations on the island. It didn't work, but it was still a deeply unsettling scene, and that is going to flavor a lot of people's reactions to the ship.

(And yes, the scene invoked some pretty homophobic tropes in its own right, but the fact that the predatory gay/bisexual trope comes from a place of homphobia doesn't make it homophobic to react to a predatory character as though they are, in fact, predatory.)
