I'm not denying that Finn and Poe had an interesting chemistry, I just think that Poe should have stayed dead.

The lingering question of what could have been would have been a way to deepen Finn's character.

And if you want to keep the actor, well. When Poe comes in to land after rescuing Finn and the group, his first words to Poe are "why are you wearing my brother's coat?"

And now you have another interesting character dynamic to explore.

The author of the novelization confirmed it was originally supposed to be Rey and Finn, but I think everyone can agree that FinnxPoe and ReyxKickingKyloInTheBalls is what should have happened.

Personally I think ReyxFinnxPoe was a pretty natural evolution but Disney would never have had the balls for it.
