This was probably done because a lot of people criticized Rick Riordan for making Nico gay in the first place. I agree. It's a sad world we live in but that's just the way things are I guess. For now at least. I still don't think it was all that ambiguous though, if the interactions had taken place between a guy and a girl there wouldn't be much of any question about whether or not they were both interested. The only problem is the assumption that people are straight, people automatically assume when a character is introduced that the character is into the opposite gender.
