Absolutely, I'd rather stick with what we have right now than have this. That would be completely stupid. Event sequence at this point is like this:
1. Buildup in act 1-2 with her.
2. Act 2 where she denies any poly proposal and straight up says that she doesn't want to share.
3. Shadowfell after which she basically says that she wants to be with MC now and always(Not to mention that she throws spear basically for your character, it is confirmed in her dialogue options with Selune clerics or durge long rest scene after).
4. You "officially" start your serious relationship after 2 acts.
5. Usually Halsin asks MC around this time, before her skinny dip scene. Can you imagine if she asked it here? "Yo, you are cool and all, but Halsin wants to get some aswell, can I?"
6. Skinny dip scene.
So yes, it would be horrible imo. It would be completely out of character. She doesn't do anything when you don't romance her, she doesn't sleep with others like Astarion/Laezel and she is not interested in Halsin when not romanced(Halsin is not interested in her too).
