Oh, thank you! I know it's hardly a unique thought, and has been out there since the whole 'you dropped of Yale' scene back in s6, but it is one of the things I love about their relationship. I love the point you made about how he may not be a constant but is there when she needs him. I was disappointed when she said they haven't spoken in 4 years but that really puts a nice spin on it.
True, even when they gave Logan a more "mature" arc, it felt there was a disconnect there and their AYITL relationship just felt like Rory was panicking about her life and regressing, regardless of what genuine feelings she had for Logan. ASP was pretty obvious with the Logan = Christopher parallels so I feel like s7 would've been more like AYITL had they still been on board.
Rory definitely needs to go back to her roots! I don't think she needs to stay there (Stars Hollow), because whatever the show likes to try to sell, she isn't Lorelai and doesn't have to be, but rediscovering herself is definitely important.
