" They neglect some very rich territory in terms of how such a couple deals with an external conflict as a team, how they can support and sustain each other through it"

I wish this was more often explored. For various reasons, such as :

1) it can give people a place to look as an example of what they might want if they've never witnessed or experienced what a healthy relationship looks like
2) it can show there's beauty in that kind of thing
3) it can be fun. Also, just because people are together and are happy and treat each other well doesn't mean they have disagreements
4) people learn how to work together. And it can be an adventure.

Definitely. Disagreements are necessary here and there, but so many relationships are presented as love conquering all when they're really just incompatible people making terrible life decisions, lol. Most of my original work has couples in historical and horror settings having to overcome very difficult external problems and really fight for each other. Steven and Diane from the original Poltergeist are still my gold standard for handling a freaky situation with humor and deep, abiding love.
