I am considering (considering) opening a topic for discussion on whether destiel will become canon in the show sometime soon.

What do you think?

A more cynical take on it is that it is queerbaiting and fanbaiting

I don't think it is queerbaiting -- I think it is exactly the same as creating the character of Becky as a big nod to fans. Lots of female fans were upset by her as well. The wink and the nod did not play exactly the way the writers may have anticipated in some quarters -- same with the language you referenced above.

For another thing, that is when the show was being helmed by Sera Gamble, and that is not incidental. That seemed to be more of her personal style.
