Very true. And in general my desire is to try and make Love distinct from both Fighting AND Fairy, both types strong against Dark.That idea is kind of redundant when Dark's weakness to Fighting is supposed to be "good triumphing over evil" already. The dark typing is supposed to be reminiscent of heels in wrestling, while fighting represents faces.
Perhaps it'd be better if Fighting was immune to Dark completely instead of merely resistant. Though I already think Fighting is one of the best types in the game and making it immune to Dark might lead to IT being overpowered. But I do think that Love's dark immunity works thematically as well. Choices, choices.
Ultimately though, Love is meant to counter Steel first and foremost as well as give much-needed buffs to Bug, Poison and especially Psychic
