Regarding inclusion in the article, I don't know what you think is being contested. If Kojima's words help illustrate the characters' relationship, then there's no reason it would be omitted deliberately. Unless people are using it to promote fan theories regarding an actual sexual relationship/attraction, of which there is no confirmation. Like I said, it was in reference to the last thread, in which many people kept trying to say that people were seeing it wrong and they only see one another as friends/"brothers"/comrades.

As far as an actual romantic/sexual relationship between them, it's undeniable that it does not exist; but what people are arguing isn't that, but the implication that Ocelot may have romantic feelings for him at all.
