I would feel surprised if people felt pressure to be part of a cuddle puddle just because there was one at a party, and inclined to say it was their problem if so. I think it’s different obviously if people are verbally pressuring them to join (and I think “awww come on! it’s fun” counts as verbal pressure). But I’d be sad if people stopped having cuddle puddles/hot tubs because of a worry that some hypothetical person might feel uncomfortable with them.
