Yes to all of this. You put it more succinctly than I could. People can legitimately and sincerely have different interpretations of a character, and it doesn't necessarily mean they are pulling random nonsense out of their ass or just making things up; two different people can watch the very same episode or scene and have radically different reactions. That's why some people can hate Character X while other people love him/her.
Ditto to your observation that characters change over time, and also that a writer can choose to focus on certain facets of the character while downplaying others. Doesn't mean those facets don't exist, it just means the writer might want to explore different avenues; might want to take one particular idea and run with it, especially if an idea was raised in canon, then dropped, and the fanfic writer wants to pursue it.
