I think we are going to have to agree to disagree on this ;)

I read this a little differently, seeing Ron trying to find
out who Hermione was going to the ball with insistently
*before* the ball.

I also believe Hermione and Ron both knew about Cho long
before he asked her to the ball (unsuccessfully).

Ron knew for sure, and Hermione would have to be pretty
thick not to figure it out (from the scene where he splashes
water down his front, and the "the make them alright at
Hogwarts" while looking at Cho).

I don't have time to find the book and exact quotes at
the moment (leaving the house right now).

I do agree that any relationship one of the trio members
might enter will change things slightly, but this is
inevitable and doesn't have to lead to huge problems, unless
it's FITD stuff, imo.
