It's up to the people involved in any relationship but those involving someone you have power over to determine whether they're alright with certain attitudes. If Hermione and Ron were comfortable with asshole banter with each other, power to 'em. It's not what I want from friends, but some people are perfectly happy and comfortable with it.

Agreed, it's not my life. And Hermione did meet students of both genders who treated her with respect, later on in the series, so it's not like she had only one prospective partner. I have to assume she saw worthwhile things in Ron that made up for his less endearing qualities. But there were a lot of instances where she didn't seem happy or comfortable with the way he was acting, so I wish fandom hadn't uniformly interpreted their arguing as a sign of compatibility or mutual attraction. I think an author can ship whoever they want, and fanon can too. But in a fandom where people were discussing the strengths and faults of different pairings in great detail, I would have expected more controversy over Ron/Hermione as its own thing, not just in the context of wanting to ship her with someone else.
