You do you OP but I'm afraid I don't understand changing things about a ship I like, because then it feels like I'm not actually all that into the ship if I feel the need to change things.

Like I have ships with size differences and they're great for that, but I don't make one up.

Does this apply only to how they look, or to characterization as well? Because TBH, I feel like the vast majority of people in fandom develop a certain slant to how they imagine their ships; it's mainly a question of degree. Do you also only ship canonical pairings? Because IMO shipping a pairing that is obviously not part of the writer(s) concept for the story is making a change - and a fairly significant one at that.

Is it that negating a given data point chafes for you in a way that ignoring authorial intent doesn't? Because I guess I can see the distinction there, though personally it's not a distinction that overly matters to me. For me it's kind of all just a matter of preference and degree.

I highly dislike OOC fic so yes characterization matters to me as well. I feel that there's wiggle room to move with characters for fanon ships, but there are absolutely ways to make it all go way off the mark and not having the characters feel like themselves at all any more.

Like one of my biggest issues in any given fandom is people largely writing OC's with the canon characters names slapped on, make them bizarrely different in height and it only becomes more apparent.
