Cartoon Network prefers the floaters or cheaters to win the season finals most of the time.

CN purposely broke up good pairings and created a fake relationship just to please fans who don't understand love. The request did not seem like it was used to teach kids that couples break up because it broke up a couple with excellent chemistry and many factors of true love. This was in the "Behind Drama" video.

There were also other things that CN requested that shouldn't have been canon.

People say the episodes are "poorly written" because the main plot insn't good and the characters aren't themselves. This is what people refer to as "derailments".
