Except that's not really true -he did in fact criticize WWX for his methods and tries but ultimately fails to get him off the self-destructive path he's on. One of the reasons he is so overly indulgent is because he actually didn't manage to stand by WWX's side against the adversity he faced and lost him because of that (in his own eyes, at least).

Like, I agree that the romance isn't the perfect flawless love story a lot of fans portray it as but that doesn't mean it's as one-dimensional as the people who dislike it like to portray it.

THANK YOU. This, honestly. The whole point of LWJ's character arc is realizing that blindly following the laws does not make you righteous, and it's his (at first, unwilling) attraction to and care for WWX that leads him to this understanding of what justice actually is. He figures out after WWX's death that most of the laws are just lip service to true justice and righteousness, and that, even though WWX never met a law he didn't love to break, WWX was the closest to actually fulfilling the purpose of cultivators to protect the common people. So when WWX returns, he's super indulgent and loyal precisely because he knows from experience that A) WWX is a just and righteous man and would never do anything harmful on purpose and B) he has a hard time asking for help, so LWJ must trick him into it by being embarrassingly loving.
