All the fucking time. There's constantly this weird appeal to realism and rigor and logic in fantasy (and SF, but it's a different, and arguably more justifiable, thing in SF than in fantasy). And it takes all kinds of forms - I think it's the same impulse that demands rigorously logical magic systems, for instance. It's the same thing that (in part) made ASOIAF so popular in the first place - the death and the political machinations and the violence led a lot of people to perceive it as more realistic - and obviously in this case it's also the kind of thing where emotional involvement is leading people to try to find some way to defend the thing.

See also M John Harrison's great essay "What It Might Be Like To Live In Viriconium" for more on this.
