If you don't mind me cutting in, the reason why Dave-Sky-Ella sort of counts is because Ella's attraction to Dave effects the (potential) relationship between Dave and Sky, as Sky became jealous and it effected her gameplay. On the other hand with Heather-Alejandro-Courtney, Alejandro is just using Courtney for his advantage and his feelings towards Courtney aren't real. He flirts with every girl he sees, and it hasn't impacted on Aleheather (which their relationship didn't technically exist at the time). For a love-triangle to work the extra third person's attraction needs to impact on the ship, as opposed to say Cody crushing on Gwen (which isn't a love triangle with Gwent, because nobody cares how Cody feels since everyone knows Gwen is disinterested).
