But vanilla doesn't mean the ship is devoid of toxicity...

Vanilla from my understanding means that the sexual encounters will be gentle and more in line with "normal" sex.
Often it means less talking, traditional top/bottom positions, and not a lot of position or scene changing.

You can have a toxic relationship in which the sex is vanilla.
Also, I think some fandomers need to learn to discern the differences in general relationship dynamics/terms in fanfics vs BDSM terms.
BDSM terms can often have more than one distinct action/purpose.

Like, not all subs are into shame kinks. Just because you see someone coined as a sub doesn't mean all you'll get is a sub crying and moaning at degradation.

I don't know what Secret OP's preferences/expectations are for vanilla sex, but I would hope they don't use "vanilla" as an umbrella term for "fluff fics".

Because again, you can have vanilla sex and still be in a toxic relationship.

You're completely right. "Fluff" or "Wholesome" would be way better opposites for toxic. The opposite for vanilla is just kinky.

And not only can a vanilla relationship be super toxic, a kinky relationship can be super sweet and fluffy! If OP is some kind of puriteen who thinks spanking or handcuffs are 'toxic' even in a story centered around trust, caring, and pleasure, just because it's not 'vanilla', then yeah I just bet they're having a hard time.
