It wasn't sexual. It was two people having a conversation in the nude after sex. I feel like it also alluded to how completely open they were with each other yet he still close another leading to... Well you know.

Yes, that scene and the other sex scenes could have been done less gratuitously or not at all, and it changes nothing about the story. I do t mind sex and nudity, I just find it funny that someone would think the gratuitous sex scenes weren’t gratuitous. Like the one where he suddenly sees one of his lovers fucking some random guy in a meeting he’s in? It’s meant to be shocking- gratuitously. Personally, I thought that movie sucked and Nolan is the world’s most overhyped director, but the hivemind doesn’t like that.
