It's a "my friends think that ships that don't switch are regressive" thing. In this context indifferent from the characterisation of the bottom as the "wimpy feminine uke".
Maybe I could've worded it better.

No worries, that’s what I started to think on rereading it, I’ve just seen a lot of messy discourse on these topics that kind of blend together separate things.

In this case, I’m right with you. I even really like switching in smut because I just think it’s hot. But that’s a personal preference, I’d never say that’s more realistic or more progressive.

Yeah, the "if you don't switch you're regressive" is a thing that comes up in fandom circles periodically (And unfortunately also in RL progressive queer communities, if a bit less often, but RL lesbians are not immune.) In fandom it tends to be the extreme end of the "OMG stop always writing my character as a weepy femme bottom just because he's short and blond" thing - that one is a pretty legit complaint, but like most legit complaints stretched out all the way to their logical end, the "you have to write them as switches" response is nearly as annoying.
