I have a different idea of a hero.

I still thoroughly enjoy the game. There are enough similarities between my tastes and that of the writers that I'm able to really get into the characters and story. But I'm also very cognizant of where our tastes differ. These moments aren't little mistakes throughout the storytelling process. They are fundamental differences of opinion in regards to what makes a respectable character.
Idk since when cheating and c*cking became normal and makes for "respectable" character. Or being a creep.

I'm not the biggest Astarion fan, but I always wonder, how he gets reduced to a mere sex symbol everywhere with his SA backstory, that actually is handled pretty well. He and Shadowheart make the least sense for a polyarmoury plot, he'll, Astarion should even decline, if Tav wants the drow foursome with his backstory. I read, that he at least have proper reaction afterwards.

On my honour run I'm currently doing Halsins questline in act 2 with Thaniel and the Shadowcurse. And while it is a nice quest, his first signs of trouble start showing. He says to my gnome girl in a very seductive voice, that she can have him, if she wishes. The first times I thought, he meant ' You have my help', but knowing his development in act 3, it sounds wrong.

I can see Shar SH being fine with polyamory(or even encourage this). Selune SH has way different relationship goals and personality(she is literally torn from that cult and finally she is free), makes no sense for polyamory(at least make her more threatened? Maybe some persuasion required too, she should be bothered).
