Arthur and Eames don't really have enough screentime for character development, true, but they have more than enough time to establish an "adversarial allies"/"flirtatious banter" baseline, and they both have pretty strong characterization, with Arthur buttoned-up, slick, competent, right-hand man, and Eames the lax and relaxed talented troublemaker. It's exactly the kind of thing that invites people to fill in the blanks with additional fanon about how they developed the dynamic they dispaly onscreen.
My point is, I think there are plenty of examples of fandom going overboard to develop white dudes with no canonical characterization or relationship, but I don't think Arthur/Eames fits the bill.
