You make some very good points, and it's something I've worried & wondered about myself more than once (http://meredevachon.livejournal.com/264887.html for a smattering of people's thoughts).
Fandoms tend to develop their own internal etiquette for so many things regarding the writing & posting of fic, and sometimes that's a good thing. Others it's unrealistic and just a big pain. And of course, it just gets worse when people come into a fandom bringing their expectations from previous fandoms.
Personally, I say spell the way that works for you.
