This. It makes sense in theory to assume that how much fandom activity you dedicate to each character is a direct reflection of how much you like each character, i.e. you make the most fanworks about your #1 fave, you make the second most fanworks about your second fave, and so on. But that's really far from how it works. Some characters I love the most have nothing left for me to contribute to in a fannish sense because canon covers them so completely and so well, and that's part of why I love them so much! And I've written fics about characters I don't even like, because an idea for a fic about them struck me.

I think some fans themselves don't really consider that they like the fannish potential of a character more than the character as they are in canon, and say "___ is my favorite character" because of that fannish potential. But then who's to say that's not a valid reason to have them be your favorite character?
