That's my entire point. Of course it could be true, but is it reasonable? If we argued based on "Well, it could be true" then we'd live in a world in which we seriously pondered over the existence of dragons and elves because "hey, they could exist you know." Anyway, here is the question you should ask yourself: Given everything we know about Arima, the various actions he's taken throughout the story, the things he has said and his overall thought process, is it reasonable to suggest his fatherly/friendly attitude towards Haise isn't completely contrived? Not, "is it possible it isn't contrived" but rather "Is it reasonable to suggest it isn't?" If you've paid attention to the story thus far I think the answer becomes relatively clear.
