A narrator isn't reliable until the text gives signals that they're unreliable. Otherwise there'd be no such thing as an unreliable narrator, because they'd all be unreliable.

I don't see what would be so bad about treating all narrators as unreliable.

More broadly, I guess I'd say that I think, in a lot of cases, that there's not really one correct answer about whether a narrator is reliable or not. If you can come up with a plausible, useful interpretation where the narrator is unreliable, I don't see why you shouldn't, regardless of whether that's signaled in the text or not.

I tend to agree with you, I just don't think "Dean is lying about being straight" is a plausible or useful interpretation in this case. Not that everyone isn't entitled to whatever fanon they want, but thinking Dean/Castiel is hot isn't enough reason to interpret Dean as closeted. There may be some differing definitions here about "interpretation" here, though. Head canon/fanon and interpretation are two different things, to me.
