I'm confused as to who you think is demanding you do this, as most fandoms don't respect the canon ship, to the point of insisting that their personal preference is actually the correct one. And a creator talking about the canon ship being canon isn't demanding you respect it either, as it's just a literal fact.

Outside of perhaps a few instances most fandoms are doing what you say they should: not respecting the canon ship just because it's canon.

I definitely have seen this happen, but it was always more of the two ships fans having a "ship war" and then one side going "ours is canon and yours is not so shut up." or something silly like this.

It's 100000% something that happens in any argument over a ship

If your ship isn't canon then you're "delusional"

+1

It happens a lot in my fandom, with accusations of misogyny when people don't include the fandom-approved canon het ship in their fic that pairs the main character with someone other than favored canon het love interest.

The only time I've ever personally seen shippers get called "delusional" is when they are insisting up and down that a non-canon pairing is in fact totes canon. I've literally never seen shippers get called delusional for merely having a preferred ship or thinking that their ship would be superior to the canon one. Only when they demand that other people acknowledge their non-canon ship as somehow being canon. (for example: the people who ship Remus and Sirius from Harry Potter are, or at least were, really bad about this, and would also call people homophobic for pointing out that Remus/Sirius wasn't actually canon)

Eh, that is just the perks of being canon. In my experience a lot of canon ships don't have much in the way of fanart/fanfic meanwhile non-canon ships spark more creativity. So the canon shippers should be allowed to enjoy the bone they have from the source material while non-canon ships mostly dominate fandom spaces.
