I would say it's a more positive ship than what we get with Amy Rose in the main continuity. Same. I never got into the San-Amy type ship due to the fact of the point of Amy's character creation does not allow for much character developement between the two for people to feel something if they ever got to get together.

All Sonic has to do is say yes and then they will be together; its way too simple and boring.

Now the Son-Ally relationship shoved down our throats for the past 20 years or so is more interesting; Archie provides us two characters with distinctly different personalities and tastes. A "Han-Solo" and a "Princess Leia". Usually argueing or have contempt with each other due to each other's initial differences but then character developement over time sets in and now their relationship becomes more relatable, if not more worthy of actual discussion.

Based on Mobian society, I can understand that relationships over there are prolly dictacted by social class, with Sally's Dad initially insisting her of getting togther only with males of significant social or political relations. Sonic comparatively, is nothing. No money, no singnifcant social/political status, nada. Sonic and Sally getting together in 30/25 years later for example could put forward a message that love trumps social/economic classes; money and power is not everything.

See?
