I think your solution just raises more issues and another wave of unhappy players. Lord Astarion is not cold, emotionally or physically. What if Tav starts with happy face, but the player wants them to change to fearful over time? Why would you ask for a kiss if Astarion disgusts you? Two extremely negative and one positive option make it seem very biased too. If they make new changes we'd be back here with new disagreements. Also, saying a solution is widely supported based on Reddit is like holding a fake election.

People who disagree with you do not owe you a solution which satisfies your personal needs either. I play for enjoyment and fun, not to work with my or anyone else's personal issues. The neutral faces are the compromise. If you want to play the toxic narrative, it's up to you how to make your headcanon work, just like how players do with the bride theory. I'd prefer if they focused on other things besides Astarion entirely from now on, as I'm very happy with the current Lord Astarion content and with the game in general. And putting time in one part is usually taken away from another.

This thread shouldn't be about "who gets the last word" either. It's turning very spiteful, with replies like "I'm not reading that" as answers to thoughtful comments. You can barely even call it a discussion at that point. If you feel like repeating yourself, you could just try to move on. Your suggestion is still there for everyone to see.
