Just one comment from someone who does not ship (the kids, anyway :o))

As long as they will be alive at the end , I am happy.
I don't see Harry as superior to Ron in terms of his personality, but 
I definitely see Harry as superiour to Ron in terms of the burdens he 
has to carry. Although I like Ron, Harry is the one who has my 
compassion and pity.

In comparison to Harry's problems, Ron's insecurities seem very 
insignificant to me.

Although as I said I don't ship, before OoP I thought that books do 
lead to Ron /Hermione romance. Now with Neville, Ginny and Luna 
getting closer to the Trio, I am thinking that there will be no 
romances inside the Trio.

My prediction will be Neville/Hermione; Ron/Luna and Harry/Ginny
