This is a fantastic example of why we should stop using "canon" as a way to think about these things. Something happens in the text. By far the most plausible reading of what happens, the most textual reading of what happens, but not the only reading of what happens, is that Korra and Asami are in a romantic relationship. And from there, you have your own interpretations of what happens that will be more, or less, textual. Given those things, what then is the use of insisting that one particular interpretation is canon and all other interpretations are not canon? Even if you just want a stick to bash haters on the head with, the way that the text depicts the characters should be enough to serve that function.

Similarly, I don't think that the comparison to Dumbledore makes sense, because they're presented quite differently in the text, but I agree that they're more or less equally apt to be described as "canon". And that's a limitation of talking about canon imo. I think that we can talk about the specifics of how Harry Potter presents Dumbledore and how Korrasami presents its characters and how we then interpret those different things based on their presentation, because I think there's a really big significant difference, but canon doesn't really enter into it.
