I'm a big fan of love/hate relationships because as you said, there's often a lot of character development and growth that comes from that. I don't really see much potential for growth with Freddie/Carly. Not to mention, one of the things I love about love/hate relationships is that the characters involved often spark one another. They tend to have a passion and a tension that belies their actions and makes their interactions fun to watch. I love the whole concept of UST and unresolved feelings. I love when a couple makes each other feel something intense. Sam and Freddie, for me, have that spark. Whether they were getting so lost in their own bickering that they forgot Carly was in the room (which happened many times. iPilot, iWant More Viewers, iLook Alike, and iSpace Out just to name a few episodes where it happened) or were kissing each other (particularly iLMM which was easily the most "intense" kiss on the show, by iCarly kid show standards anyways. haha)

Creddie reminds me of Harry and Hermione from Harry Potter. They were the best of friends and I completely adored their friendship. It was amazing. They cared for one another deeply, but there was no passion. They didn't spark anything in each other and a relationship without sparks? Well that's just friendship. That's not romance.
