I'm under the impression that Chii is a bit more intelligent and humanistic than SmarterChild.

Your argument is still faulty. You're comparing a relationship method (long distance; over phones, computer, etc) to a relationship in which only one party has the capacity for love and the formation of an actual relationship. It's apples to oranges, unless you are assuming that the emotions of people who communicate over the computer are digitized and disingenuous somehow. You're also wrong by turning the conversation to sex, since we know that people in LDRs can get around that and there's no reason to believe people wouldn't have sex with robots.

I guess my opinion of love varies, especially when you're dealing with something like a futuristic world where the robots may or may not be capable of love. I don't know the characters at all, so I honestly have no idea what my opinion would be if I actually read the manga, but if she's programmed to love I don't see why that is . . . well, unacceptable. Hell, I even wrote a fic (in another fandom) where that's exactly how it went. The robot was programmed to love. He had feelings and emotions. He was sad that the woman he was in love with didn't love him back because he was a robot, and so forth. It was difficult for her to come to terms with that, but she eventually realized she did love him too. So I guess I can see how the man in Chobits might like the robot girl.

I don't know the character all that well either, but I don't think you really thought it through when you tried to compare the two.

Just so long as I'm nitpicking: "Programmed to love" still isn't the same as love freely felt and chosen.

My understanding of Chobits is that she is actually capable of emotions, love, and other functions that are entirely outside of her programming, and that the moral of the story was that love transcends form and sex. This really just makes the OP look foolish, especially since if that's the case, a relationship with a robot wouldn't be any easier.
