Queer ships are universally different and not comparable to straight ships in ship wars because without the ship/feelings/reciprocation all characters involved would still be queer because their queerness exists and is represented in them independently from specific romantic feelings and that queerness would still deeply affect their characters' relationships to themselves.
Queer ships are not the same as straight ships because queer ships are inherently indicative of something deeper in the individual that is affects their character arc to the core and straight ships are love stories.
Basically, the queer experience and the straight experience are not the same. I feel like people should know this, and I feel like people do, so I assume they just don't realize that that's what the conversation is. But I'm not fighting for the ship. I'm fighting for the characters to be queer. Your characters were already straight. You get what I'm begging for regardless. You think we'd have equal things - love stories - taken away but you're wrong.
If two people don't get together I don't have a love story to live vicariously through anymore. If two people aren't queer I'm not in the story anymore.
Hope this helps.

Aww Chestnut, you'd be a wonderful father! Just look at how you act with children! *coughs and points at Stein*
"Stein. is. a. diff.er.ent. sit.u.a.tion."
Roasted Chestnut shrugs, combing his hair as he searches for his hair ribbon.
"I. on.ly. real.ly. like. kids. a.round. the. hol.i.days., an.y. o.ther. time., I'm. fair.ly. tol.er.ant. Of. course., I'm. not. one. of. those. weird.os. who. yells. at. child.ren. for. ex.is.ting., but. I. will. ad.mit. that. I. don't. like. chil.dren. at. the. best. of. times."
