It's there, yes, but it makes no real difference to choose it. There's no sleeping together until the graveyard scene either way. And if you reject his advances at the graveyard he gets a bit disappointed.

What I want is an asexual route where there's emotional intimacy rather than physical. And I think Astarion is a great companion for this.

Also "For as long as YOU need" says Tav will be waiting for him until HE's ready. I want a scenario where Tav isn't just waiting for Astarion to "get back to normal". I want a relationship where the relationship success isn't based on them sleeping together. Normalize being ace too, and let Tav be ace/demi and find a partner without the pressure of sex.
