The also removed her love interest because they thought having a commanding officer serve the role was too Harvey Weinstein for current year. This despite the fact that in the original Mulan was the one who first has the hots for him and nothing happens between them until the end of the movie when she invites him to her house for 'dinner'. In other words they neuter an actual female taking control of the romantic angle of the story.

It's not simply that they can't be friends, they can't understand the basic idea of 'brotherhood' or even that guys will often consider another dude to be awesome because either they're a badass, a thoroughly decent human being, have a kickass work ethic, are effortlessly cool, balance their sensitive and tough sides, or are consistently awesome to their family or girlfriend, etc, etc. For them everything has to have a suppressed sexual element because thats all they can understand. They think of everything in terms of sex, money, and status and nothing deeper exists beyond that (Tumblrina types, most women are better, and some far better).

Two bros being bros are more "gay" to an outsider than most gay relationships.
Many guys I know are more openly affectionate, both physically and verbally, with their boys than their women and that's just how many of them roll.
