Why did they not deny it the moment this got blown up? Is there any other reason besides the really annoying "Bioware enjoys our tears!" thing that gets spammed all over?
We have no idea.
One of the devs (possibly Gaider -- but then I always attribute everything to him, he's my go-to dev when I need to attribute a quote) said they were not at liberty to discuss romances further (in the romance thread, maybe?).
It could just be that marketing has told them to keep tight-lipped on it. Or it could be that they've agreed between themselves they just don't want to let that much information out. Or, they could just miss half the speculation (they don't keep up with the threads to the extent us freaks of nature do). Or they could simply just be evil.
