You said, "I'm going to disappoint everyone in fandom before I get any further and say that I don't think Sam and Dean are having crazy, mad, incestuous sex. Really, I don't." and that's what made me think of the above article.
I think that sentiment is actually held by more than a few Wincest shippers, myself included. I don't think they have hot wild kinky sex on the daily, but I do see it as a possible progression of their relationship. I'd even go so far as to say an *obvious* progression of their relationship based mainly on your points about their emotional entanglement (emotional Wincest, hehe) above. And as the linked essay states, for some writers it isn't about the hotdirtywrongness of the incest but about giving Dean and Sam the happy ending that the show is so Hell-bent on depriving them of.
So yeah, sorry, only semi-related I know, but most of your posts seem to get me thinking tangentially.
