But, he already knows what she's like, and his very next comment is that it makes him happy that she's thinking about him so much, and he's even grateful because it'll help him know what to do to make her happy. So this is just like how his initial reaction is to find a lot of things "otaku" do to be a bit creepy at first, but he comes to understand and appreciate it.

So no, this change really doesn't alter anything about Kyousuke's character at all, and isn't really a bad thing. I think you're just juxtaposing things in a rather extreme way to make it seem like a judgement call when it really wasn't when put in context.
No, that post was just a lame joke on my part, sorry. ^^; It was a fanboyish little joke about the greatness of Kuroneko; I understand where Kyosuke's coming from, and don't have any issue with him or that bit of dialogue at all. (Though my initial response to the artwork would probably be much more positive; too much passion in a relationship is better than not enough.)
