I don't mind when people use that kind of language as shorthand for subconscious decisions about characters. That sort of thing happens to me, where I realize that all the little choices I've made about a character as I was writing mean that something I have planned will no longer work the way I wanted, and if someone wants to phrase that as the character not cooperating, it's a little precious but I can see the fun in it. But I can't deal with people who mean it seriously.

I have never heard anyone not mean it seriously and I've heard many people say that stuff. For a while I thought they were all kidding and it was obviously an exaggeration of the writing process right? Nope

Anne Rice, Laurel K. Hamilton, and Stephanie Meyer used this kind of language routinely, as I remember, and so did one or two ficcers I recall crossing paths with in my fandom days. Interestingly, Rice and Hamilton are noted for the shitfits they've thrown in reaction to criticism, Stephanie Meyer didn't take at all kindly to it either, and the fan ficcers I'm thinking of were some of the most crit-averse people I've ever encountered in fandom, which is ironic seeing that they were also spoilers.

Fuck, that should be "they were also sporkers." Autocorrect at work.
