Given that rejecting exists....what is any sort of bad thing about this situation?

A could gift B a fic about anything at literally any time of the year. B can read it if they want to reject it without any issue. If B doesn’t care about what other people think (wank) then it happening during Yuletide is literally no difference.

B’s life is not ruined because some loser tried to force a comment from them and got shot down for their trouble. It’s 2 seconds out of their day to hit reject if they are the 1 in a million that this happens to in Yuletide 2020.

Oh my goodness coalie, rejection existing being a minimiser is just fucked up - akin to 'just say no'.

Either peer pressure (wank) exists and it is on their side because the author is the one going very much against the grain. Or wank is not an issue and then there is no peer pressure at all.

You can’t have it both ways.
