What surprises me about this "Maja can't be a LI because she'll pick Vic over MC" is that Vic is the most selfless and positive girl we have seen in SG (and that's why she stands out as a LI and I love her, where Bella is MC's mirror, Vic is MC's opposite and that's great for him considering where he's coming from). She'd 100% want Maja to be happy with MC if he wasn't meant for her. Besides, she'd get to hang out with MC all the time and she's such a bundle of joy and positivity that I can't see why she wouldn't be able to get over her feelings for MC. And yeah, I thought the original plan was to have a Maja+Vic throuple (why their relationship is different in the Patreon original implies they will be sexually involved together), and we know Vic is the most open LI to throuples, so why wouldn't she want to share with Maja more than anyone else?
But hey, disclaimer, I'm just surprised but I trust Ocean. We have very limited information about the characters at this point, he has a much clearer picture as he has nearly finished writing the story.
