Whatttttt that is just ridiculous. For one thing, there are Holmes stories without Watson, and they're mostly terrible. For another thing, Watson is awesome, and his contribution to the stories, in terms of structure and plot and in terms of atmosphere and character, is immense - I mean that, in addition to being a great character, he's an essential addition to the plot by allowing us to be outside Holmes' view.

This kind of thing reminds me of someone who wants to get rid of the setup of a joke and just leave the punchline - or someone who only ever wants to eat dessert, and no main course.

Everyone is allowed their own opinion but I don't understand that point of view at all. Holmes needs his Watson. (And I too say that in a non-shippy sense, though I do ship certain versions of them.)
