*Correction*Also Experimenting together is clearly mentioned:

Yeaaaaaa about that, I had been looking all over for some time as well. That route flagged the variable ian_lena_open = True.
But then that's it, that variable did not came up anymore in the later play through, if I'm not mistaken the ianxlenaxlouise threesome had nothing to do with the variable too. The only way I got the threesome without involving Jeremy's threesome is to let Lena has sex with Louise.
I still think Cindy won't cheat on Ian on the romantic path purely because why would Eva, in the eyes of those who enjoy that path, ruin the path. I guarantee you most people playing romantic Cindy are doing so cuz they want to romance Cindy, not get cheated on. That doesn't mean I don't foresee a bad ending with Cindy, just not that she has already been sleeping with Axel just because they were at the club.
Also in terms of who is best for Ian/ what would be the best option in a world with more realistic consequences my ranking from best to worst would be:
Faithful Lena
Non corrupted Holly
Pure romantic Alison
Cherry
Corrupted Holly
Emma? No real romance signs tbh
Cindy
Minerva
Cheating Lena
The best canon relationship for me is of course loyal Ian and loyal Lena. Player plays as the red string to tie 2 MC together like the game name implied. Seriously though when you have 2 of them loving and caring only for each other, keeping a friendly relationship with other npcs all you will be seeing is 2 souls with broken hearts from previous relationship found salvation in each other. All the dramas happening around them doesn't affect this 2 who are in their own little world. The debate between all the possible LI for Ian is interesting though but relationship wise, Ian has it a lot better than Lena. Faithful Ian is like the only choice for Lena without getting hurt again, or Stan like some claimed to be (I don't know, there is too little screen time to even show Stan as a decent person). But then again, it's a porn game. Most people might find this boring because of this pure vanilla love.
Like a lot of players have been saying Ian is boring and that's true. He is just an ordinary guy, decent but ordinary. Not super cool to have girls surrounding him, not a complete human garbage. An ordinary young man chasing his dreams, while Lena struggling financially to even survive in the city. Look at other male casts,
Jeremy isn't the type to fall in love the only thing he loves is sex. Claiming Louise isn't girlfriend yet going to her time to time and fucks her.
Mike isn't all that different with fucking around only that he shows more care for his gf than Jeremy does to Louise?
Axel remains a complete package of human garbage to me (I'm sorry for offending Axel fans
)
Seymour? A capitalist like him has plans for Ian and Lena and I'm still waiting to see how interesting the plot is.
Stan & Robert..... I'm sorry who are they?
