In shows and movies where you don't have a lot of deep character study, it's always more fun to leave these things ambiguous, it allows speculating and leaves the character more relatable to a wider swath of people. You see gay there, but maybe someone else sees something different and when you don't confirm, both are valid.
Take James from Pokemon for an example. If they ever came out and said he was one particular thing, you would just be snatching him away from 3 or 4 other communities who felt kinship with him. And now Pikachu looks like a bully. But leave it as is and people aren't excluded, we all win.
