Which comes back to what I mentioned- if Hickman wanted them back together at the start of HoX/PoX, this meantime would be the perfect one to have them together., working stuff out, and of course Marvel would be glad to try to get money on the will they/won't they approach. Hence, my conclusion is that he doesn't want them as a couple at the start of the story (which doesn't mean they never will get together eventually)
