I don't think it's so much lack of imagination as lack of enthusiasm.

Seconding this so hard. I love fics that involve a lot of plot and nuance, and that flash out characters other than just the characters I ship. However, my feelings about a ship are always the thing that motivates me to seek out fanworks in a particular fandom. My feelings about my OTPs have always been...intense. A little obsessive, TBH. Very similar to the way one might feel when falling hard for another person. Like if someone says their names in a crowd my entire being goes "THEY SAID THEIR NAMES OMG BE COOL."

That's a much more powerful, motivating feeling than I get from...most other things. That doesn't mean I don't enjoy all sorts of other aspects in the fics I read. I just don't crave those other aspects to the same degree I crave shippy stuff.
