Creators are allowed to have dumb opinions, even and especially about their own creations. I'd say it's only a problem when they shut down fanworks they don't like.

Oh I absolutely think they should be allowed to. I just kind of feel like the current culture of it is... kind of having a toxic effect on fandom? Like it helps fuel the current mindset of which ships are more or less valid and if you're a bad person for shipping them or not. And stuff like fans chasing people off twitter for liking the wrong fan ship or screaming at them and calling them pedophiles for saying there's nothing wrong with Shiro/Paladin ships etc.

Like how can Rowling coming out later and saying Harry/Ginny was wrong and she should have made it Harry/Hermione possibly have a nice soothing effect on fandom?

Except that's not what she said at all - heck, Ginny wasn't even mentioned in that interview. She said that, in some ways, Harry/Hermione were a better fit but in other ways Ron/Hermione were a better fit. Not once did she say it should've been H/Hr or that she regretted R/Hr.
