Assuming everyone who's enthusiastic about an OT3 you don't share is doing it for generic polyvangelist reasons and not because it strokes their id to see these particular characters all involved with each other is also kind of want in a vegetables kind of way, though.
Not all love triangles are best resolved with threesomes, but some are. Others are best resolved with all three parties staying a billion miles away from each other, or with the two potential love interests banging and blowing off the hinge character, or even with the hinge character making a fucking choice rather than dithering for six books. Buy yes sometimes a threesome does indeed solve my problems with a stupid love triangle. (And the one I'm thinking of right now is one that adds some same-sex lovin' to a previously het V, when the two dudes decide they're into each other too. When it's a dude and two women I'm usually more likely to think the women should run off together and leave boring hero to his own devices, admittedly.)
