Wow, huh? She probably means since it is the biggest ship in Harry Potter it is forced down her throat. That's like calling the main character a Mary Sue just for being the main character. Nope, doesn't make any sense, not until the whole WW stands still in awe and shock at their first kiss. (The entire Gryffindor house would be expected in HP after all.:p)

I don't think Ron/Hermione is an example of a 'Mary Sue' couple either. It's not like a lot of Hogwarts students consider Ron and Hermione to be very desirable (unlike Harry/Ginny, who are considered to be extremely attractive by many characters in HBP).
