I could buy the "if there's no Nuke, there's no Noah on the show" argument for people who wanted to keep Jake around as long as the show was on the air. I mean, even though I think everything Damian did with the whole "Holden is dead" situation, and the way he treated Meg, and marrying Lily under false pretenses, and all that was all really shitty, there's definitely a part of me that wishes he hadn't gotten caught, or that he'd been found out in such a way that he could have convinced people that he'd been acting in good faith, just so he could have stayed on the show longer.
So, yeah, if someone is a really big fan of Jake's, I can see them wanting whatever it takes to keep Jake on the show, as long as there was an actual show for him to be on. But even then, I don't get them thinking his behavior was okay -- when I say I wish Damian hadn't gotten caught, that doesn't mean I'm okay with what he did; it just means I wanted Paolo around for as long as possible. And, now that the show is off the air, I definitely don't get all the people who desperately want to envision a future where Luke and Noah reunite and resume the exact same dysfunctional, emotionally abusive relationship they always had. I mean, yeah, I like to picture a future where Luke and Damian can have a good relationship again, but I'd be horrified to think of a future where Lily took him back again, even if I'd have been happy for them to stay together as long as it kept him on the show.
