I think from a fanfic perspective that ships don't necessarily need to take past ships or friendships into consideration all the time. People ship characters with like the sibling's ex or sibling's best friend with the character all the time! It can be a little weird if you ignore this fact completely in said fic but fandom is fandom, and it's easy to write everyone talking everything out before hand or st. Messy ships are fun too!

Much more weird when people are acting like it wouldn't be an issue IN CANON for a character to date their best friend's ex, or their sibling's ex. That's something that can easily destroy a friendship/relationship? Especially if the break up was bad or JUST happened? It also quite honestly makes the character look bad, and inconsiderate.
