NS!1
Most people who support the House don't. In 2002 there were people who supported the House who thought she was going to take it in a different direction than what it went. There were lots of hints about house unity in the Sorting songs, and even in OOTP there were interesting hints about habitat destruction and species competition.
But then in 2004 JK went to the Holocaust Museum, and in the interview (which you can find online, in "The Scotsman"), she said that she had never really realised before how similar her plot was to certain aspects of same. And (from our perspective) she bought her Godwin ticket and she climbed aboard the failboat, abandoning all interest in house unity. But who really cares what she was thinking pre-2004? The books we have are what we have, and that is all we will ever get. You loved them. We were disappointed. We're allowed to have an opinion.
All of the people who supported the House then? Pretty much admit that we failed at guessing her intentions. That's...not at all anything even remotely like news.
But we don't care. Why does it bother the rest of the fandom so much that the old school Slytherfen have either gone AU, are stripping off serial numbers as we speak, or continue to quietly haunt their own corners of the internet and produce fic and art for each other?
Here's the thing I've never understood about the Go-Go-Gryffindor, R/Hr, OBHWF side of HP fandom. You got everything you wanted from canon, with a big pat on the head from the author in the form of the epilogue. Why are you guys still bitching at Harmony and the Slytherfen and everyone else? Did you expect everyone else now and ever in the HP fandom to kiss your ass and beg for forgiveness for having a different interpretation of the earlier books? It's not gonna happen.

Re: NS!1
But people write all kinds of things without expecting them to be canon. I never expected Harry/Draco to be canon and I'm sure most Draco/Hermione shippers didn't expect it to be canon. I did however meet some people outside fandom who thought D/Hr was a possibility.
