As Carrie noted, this is totally my reasoning as well. I mean it's HARD. And I love Rodney, in theory, but like you, what would that level of neurosis be like in real life? :))

Mainly, I'm kind of the one climbing the walls, so I need a partner that can pull me down. Ergo, Ronon. And he gets bonus points for being able to throw me around like a ragdoll. :D (and Ronon/Keller FTW)

But also, re: John, there would be no time for coffee drinking. Just lots and lots of fucking. :))
