Relevance in this instance? It's far from a stretch. The sexual preference of one character (Dirk) is entirely unknown. Todd canonically is into women but whether he's also into men is likewise unknown. As they are the two leads and canonical close friends, they're hardly illogical in ship terms and the boring bit is surely just a matter of opinion.

Diverse ships are to be encouraged and celebrated, but dissing all white guys ships as boring and illogical is trite tokenism.

Relevance is that this is a show full of vibrant, interesting characters and ships. To only ship the two most boring characters together, who JUST HAPPEN to be straight-presenting white dudes, is tiresome. It's like desperately looking for a way to make a bizarre show less interesting.
