At the time I remember some fans speculating that Ingo didn't want the pairing, but from what I've read since and what you've said it does seem to be more on Riche. I suppose she was under pressure by that point, working at PC, the clashes with Guza, so she wanted two new pairings with hot new hires (Hannah and Chloe), neither of which went anywhere with viewers. I never understood why they would cast a cutesy blonde for Jax as that didn't seem like his type to me. The whole mixed marrieds story annoyed me a great deal because to me the whole point of a story like that is to have real change in the relationships. And I did not like Ned/Alexis as a pairing, so I was just frustrated all around.
I don't think I ever took to Jason or Steve after all the claims at the time, and little from Steve offcamera afterward changed my mind, although he's done good work since his return. Looking back, I realize pairing Jason and Carly would have probably been the wrong decision, but Steve and Sarah really did have a strong connection onscreen for a while there.
