IMO he has done this to both Adalind and Juliette/Eve.Totally agree. It's one thing to be a committed partner, another to lose all sense of self.

Would it really be so bad for the story or the characters, if Eve never had a romantic/emotional connection with the male lead, and instead, remained a strong, independent warrior who happen to be a woman?

Eve without emotion basically just looked like an annoyed Juliette anyway.Eve experiencing another person’s feelings should resemble Eve struggling to process emotions - an unlearned and previously unnecessary skill - while carrying out her duties. Even if feeling Juliette’s emotions, Eve would not have referred to herself and Nick as ‘us’ because she would still view Juliette as the person Nick once had a relationship. And even if feeling Juliette’s emotions, Eve would not concede full authority to Nick, it would not be in her nature.
But instinctively conceding to Nick is in Juliette’s nature, and I think the only part of Eve that exists in the spoiler scene is the name.
