I think you're looking at this the wrong way.

If the characters are from that culture and are dropping the honorifics in-world, that is a big deal to them in the world, in the culture that the characters are from. "Can I call you by your first name or change what honorific I address you with?" is a huge deal in Japanese culture for example. Not to the authors, not to the readers, but to the characters themselves who see that in-world as a step closer to each other. To remove that would be to change what the characters are feeling or seeing as significant.

That's totally different from someone in English going hey Jonathan, can I call ya Johnny? Cool cool
