You've pretty much hit on all the major points there.
I want to like Keller. I really, really do. But the writers are making it difficult for me as they are elevating her at the expense of all the other characters (it feels like she's gotten way more screen time than Woolsey, plus Teyla and Ronon are becoming nearly nonexistent).
I don't mind the idea of McKeller, but the it's the execution that bothers me. The courtship process (if you even want to call it that) has been painfully awkward to watch. They also lack the chemistry that makes a ship work. I would prefer the show to not ship at all, but the least they could do is make it believable if they're going to dump it on us.
