What you're saying is a good point, even if it's being downvoted to hell. The shoehorned is the difference between say:

Snape and Dumbledoore supposedly being gay lovers despite it not being hinted at even once in the entire film's chronology up to the point JKR said so.

Vs. Something like Modern Family where they came right out the door with Mitchell and Cameron being gay, and then used that as an actual story element throughout the series rather than just shoehorning it in to appeal to the LGBT crowd then never bringing it up again.

One feels like a tasteful, meaningful addition to the story, the other feels like a marketing gimmick.
