There is a contingent of fans who, for whatever reason, very, very badly want to see Scott and Jean as friendly ex-es. MechaJeanix is one of them. In particular, they want to see Scott and Jean both paired off with other people yet still remain close friends with each other. Maybe Morrison successfully sold them on the notion that Scott and Jean are best friends who shouldn't be together sexually/romantically.
Personally, I don't understand the appeal of such a scenario, and it makes no sense given the characters' history. But then, I'm a rock-ribbed Jott shipper.
