I like your points. I don't like R/T (like olivehornby above, it startled me that people shipped them) but anyway, I don't think any of the points you brought up are reasons to bash the ship or shippers.

The age one is particularly interesting, as what it is to me is an interesting obstacle - it would force the author to write an intelligent, mature story wherein Tonks and Remus both would have to examine their motives somewhat and realize that their relationship isn't going to be terribly normal compared to other people. Things like that, which could in fact be interesting. If I could see them together, which I can't, so I don't read it. ;)

I have been guilty of being annoyed at the speed with which R/T was picked up after OotP, when it felt like "an available girl! Quick! SHIP HER!" given that to me it feels as far-fetched as pairing, I dunno, Ginny and Dean (which I know is actually canon, but if you think about it, we've never even really seen them interact with each other), but I have to give the R/T shippers credit for sticking with it and making it into a proper ship (even if it still gives me the WTF vibes).
