I've never heard that definition of OTP before - how interesting! I've always heard it as a personal preference, not a fandom-wide term.
I think RP can definitely push things to a new level of intensity. I've never done it myself, but I know it does put people at a big risk of being hurt.
I have no idea if other RPS writers see things as I do - I have a feeling that a lot of people don't think this deep about it, to be honest. It would be interesting to ask! :)
