I think the point you're missing here is that in het couples, there will almost always be a moment where the subtle build becomes a real thing - that romantic moment where they kiss for the first time, or the cut away to their marriage.

With gay relationships we are regularly seeing that moment missed because it increases their audience share or makes it more sellable in China, or to sidestep censorship issues.

That's the big difference. Where people face life ruining consequences, it's understandable. For the rest of the world it's moral cowardice in the pursuit of profit.

I'd be perfectly happy with a subtle build in queer relationships if we also got that moment of confirmation that we get with het pairings.
