We haven't gotten a fusion in almost a year (other than Topaz), and so people are going through withdrawal. Also, Lars and Steven got honest and open and have been linked through Steven's empathy powers for a while now. That honest intimacy is very similar (thematically) to the burgeoning relationship Steven has with Amethyst that lead to Smoky Quartz. Steven and Amethyst had like four episodes about their feelings, got in an argument/fight, talked about how they really felt, then fused when they needed to beat Jasper. Under a similar formula, Stars could very well end up happening. So on that note, can you at least see how people might think Stars makes sense at this point in time?

Now, whether or not you see Stars as a useful fusion is up for debate, but if you think Stars won't be a good fusion, I will remind you that Fusions are more than just the sum total of their parts. They are a new being, with more to offer than Steven and Lars do individually or even as a co-op team. They become one, stronger being. So I wouldn't count Stars out as being useful just yet (not saying you have).

These are all just why I think people are anticipating/exciting for Stars. Again, I really am interested in hearing why you don't want Stars to happen.
