Yes to all of this. I hate this type of attitude, it's disturbing, especially your last point:

"(The biggest reason this phrase makes me batshit is its reverse implication -- if you have major character flaws, you should settle for someone who treats you like shit.)"

This is closely related to the idea that being in a volatile, dysfunctional, or otherwise unhealthy relationship is better than being single.

"X is the best that Y will ever be able to get, so he/she should just suck it up, because ANYTHING is better than being single." Um, no, no, and no.

"X is a flawed person who has made mistakes or has some less-than-stellar personal attributes, therefore he/she should be grovelingly grateful that ANYONE would deign to be with them." Ugh.
