This fandom is brutal on the squee. I find it best not to dare outside my own little corner too much for that reason.
I think it's because there's such a wide spectrum of stories in DW that people become very invested in their particular preferences to the point where they become hostile when things don't match their expectations. Sort of like the downside to a "diverse rainbow". If all you care about is yellow, you really hate those red and green bastards.
