Why do people ship Makorra when it obviosly draws back character developement and hurts characters like Asami and Bolin?

I ship Amorra for the main reason a lot of people ship Zutara, it's the antagonist/protagonist tension that helps drive it on. There's also the fact that it would be a much more serious relationship than any teen drama the show could have, and probably would have been handled much more maturely than Masami, Borra, and Makorra. I mean loving your enemy, from both sides, is something that has to be treated right in a show, and I'd love to see both characters break down and think 'how did it come to this?'

There's also the fact that Korra never realizes that benders have been oppressing long before Tarrlok, and do get many privileges over non-benders. I would have liked for her to at least look from Amon's point of view for once, and it would have been cool to see them come up with a compromise instead of it being either the bending or the nonbending side wins. This could be done without romance, but romance with her enemy is probably what it'd take for her to finally want to look at his side and not want to destroy him.

Trust me, Amorra makes a lot more sense to me than several pairings in the show, which is why I prefer it.

Also, Pemzin has a 16 year age difference, so I don't need that age difference BS right now.
