two people love Jack, he's not going to perceive that as a problem. Not in any world I can make fit.
I agree. And we've seen nothing in canon that makes such a notion plausible.
Having snarky bitey arguments about who doesn't belong, and Jack not participating at all except as some distant object of desire, seems like a pattern imported from another paradigm.
I have read a lot of fanfic that pictures a Captain Jack who seems to me to be from some alternate universe - where Jack shows traits that I think are simply foreign to his character.
Which is okay. It's the nature of fanfic. They write the Jack they see, I write the Jack I see.

A matter of preference.
