Great points. I thoroughly enjoyed reading. I'm not into the Wincest of SPN either, except as it relates to what you've written here. Even then, I'm uncomfortable with the terminology.
Also, let's not forget that this whole thing started with Daddy dearest. Because Dean grew up being the good little soldier, the one in charge of keeping Sammy safe, the one ultimately responsible for the care and welfare of his younger brother. That right there is enough to create a bond to rival the best romantic relationship. John made them codependent, so they know nowhere to turn other than to each other for everything they need, except sex.
