I think there needs to at least be a good faith effort to consider audience reactions? I mean, at the heart of it that's what good storytelling is, reaching an audience, and if the author or artist is getting an unintended reaction then it's noteworthy.

At the same time if ten thousand people stare at the Mona Lisa and see a woman's portrait and then one person swears up and down it looks more like a bowl of fruit to them, then there's not really much you can do, is there?

So it's not a clear cut topic at all, and there's no hard and fast line for how many people interpret something the 'wrong' way before it needs to be taken seriously. And then you get into herd behavior and how easy it can be to influence people if enough people start saying the Mona Lisa is a painting of a bowl of fruit then others will agree no matter how little canon basis there may be. (I'm sure everyone here can think of one piece of fanon that makes them go WTF)
