This is fair, but I just do not believe for a single second that this was the intent, and I'm someone who cares about authorial intent. I mean, if I'm in the fandom for something then I will happily disregard authorial intent, but if it's something I'm not interested in fannishly and it needs to actually stand on its own, then I care about authorial intent quite a lot. I'm not overly interested in projecting my own sensibilities onto a movie in order to interpret it in a way that doesn't piss me the hell off. You absolutely can do that; it's valid; I'm not saying it isn't. I just have no interest in doing it.

I think your position is also fair and valid! I don't care about authorial intent in almost all cases but it's totally legitimate to care about it, it's just two different perspectives.

But I just want to be clear, this isn't some reading I've adopted just to pretend a movie I like is flawless, and I don't think I'm projecting my own sensibilities onto the movie. The themes that I mentioned are what I think the movie is about in general, and they're a big part of why I like the movie. These aren't things I'm coming up with as some kind of special pleading. And I still think the scene isn't great even in the light of those themes.
