While your Wesen population statistical theory is interesting, you may be making a couple of assumptions that might defeat your "empirical evidence". First, you assume that humans are the dominent species. I have theorized that Wesen may be the dominent species and humans have either co-evolved or descended from the interbreeding of Wesen and humans. So Wesen may actually outnumber humans by a large ratio. Second, you assume that Wesen are still primitive and are out every night hunting for prey. On Grimm this is rarely the case. Like humans, most Wesen conflicts are based on other issues than just killing to survive (except for maybe the Spinnetod who actually seemed more concerned about staying young). Most of the Wesen featured so far have various intelligence and emotional levels but they all generally seem to be succesfully adapting to living among humans (or as I mentioned earlier maybe we  have successfully adapted among them.) Either way, the Wesen for the most part appear as civilized as humans and we don't always act as civilized as we should.

As for the Nick/Monroe relationship, on some other Grimm fan ficiton sites, a large porpotion of stories since the series has started have featured Nick, Monroe, and even Renard in a variety of relationships. Scenes like the one you mentioned with Monroe having Nick over for dinner slyly nods in that direction. I'm not certain but I think the producers of Grimm are gay, as are some of the actors. Now that doesn't mean there is going to be an openly gay realtionship on Grimm anytime soon but it does seem they like to be "coy" with the audience.

Of course the storylines of Grimm, just like the Brothers Grimm tales it is inspired by, serves as a metaphor for human prejudices. Mythology has always used animals to represent human frailities from Greek legends to modern day cartoons. Grimm deals with living creatures trying to deal with a hostile world and cover up or control who they really are. Substitute Wesen trying to mask their true identity to survive with the human history of prejudice against homosexuals, people of the Jewish faith, Muslims, or any race, creed, or color in society. So Grimm really represents humans and how we all struggle with our own prejuidices and our own internal conflicts in trying to survive in a very hostile human environment.
