Unironically, yes. Normalizing LGBTQ+ characters, relationships, and plots is much more helpful than having them be a "spicy" token minority for audience reaction. Look at Schitt's Creek (different medium, I know) for example. The character David is pansexual and treated just like anyone else. His major love interest may be a guy but the plots about it have nothing to do with the fact that they're both men, just that they're two people in a romantic relationship with one partner being anxious and neurotic with the sass turned up to 11.
