So I don't see much need to hold fanfic to standards that published fic clearly isn't, you know?

I agree with this. But I think most of the people who don't enjoy historical fanfic AUs that exclude the period-typical values probably also don't enjoy published fiction that does the same.

This is very much true for me. My standards are the same, published or not. Without the period-typical values, neither are my cup of tea. (A certain amount of bending and defying those values can be really good, certainly, but the very act of bending and defying them serves to illustrate that they exist, and are formidable.)

Well, fair enough, I'm not saying you can't prefer one or the other. I'm just saying that, with published fiction, both would come under the header 'historical romance' and/or 'historical fiction', so I don't see why equally inaccurate fanfic shouldn't also get to do the same.
