A large problem with that though is what exactly do people think qualifies as Queerbait? What people define as yuribait can vary a considerable amount, from things like Love Live and Madoka to Utena. Some people will view a scene as fantastic fanservice which they love, others will despise it as bait. (like those official Madoka pictures from that game people were sharing, that made a lot of people happy when its a similar situation) This series is certainly one that can be considered a more problematic one, due to the source material, but at this moment it's not a Love Lab, it's an unknown. If the series genuinely does add in the het plotlines from the original and focus on them, I can understand the displeasure and people would be free to be upset over it, but that's not currently the situation. It's 99% sure it won't go for a Korra ending, but holding them responsible for something that hasn't happened and getting upset that you can't enjoy a pairing that you wish you could doesn't seem an apt response.
I really think that's a seperate point though, whether or not they should have making it gayer in the first place. My point is not so much about that as much as it is the fact that some people seem to think that KyoAni is preventing the series from being yuri, and wasting the potential they had, when like I said, the only reason the potential exists is cause they added it. That's my major concern over the comments.
And my comment over "Would you have honestly rather had nothing over a couple that they won't make kiss in the show?" wasn't me commenting on the het aspect, it was commenting on the Not Yuri part. It's discounting the possibility of the het being added and focusing entirely on "If it doesn't make them gay, what's the point". If the choice was between "Nothing or Love Labbing", then I would agree that yes, Nothing is better. But that's not what we have at the moment.
