I don't disagree with you that fanfic is sort of its own genre, but that's precisely why I don't understand the appeal of reading fanfic for series I don't follow. it's like assembling a puzzle while missing at least 30-50% of the pieces.

I agree, but again, I don't see how that goes against my point. Some people like to read fic where two characters are definitely going to end up together and everyone knows it.

Oh, I wasn't disagreeing with your major point, just saying that in my opinion it's less directly about exposition/lack thereof and more about shorthand and assumptions.
But some of those are not even holes because of show events or characterization, but holes based on fanon or the mutual agreement by shippers that the characters should be together, stuff like that.
There's nothing wrong with that, but it's definitely something that is pretty endemic to fanfiction.

So I'm not disagreeing with you!

Oh cool! Sorry, my bad. I definitely agree that's one of the major elements of fanfiction.
