I think it’s also cause usually those kind of series already had dad’s married before. Here he was never in a relationship and doesn’t have children, usually they were very in love, had children and mothers died (usually during birth which is very realistic for that time period). So, it’s also kinda different to fall in love for the first time and to forget the love of your life and have a new relationship. Would be nice if more series had mothers alive, though I’ve read many that do and don’t.
This is the strongest side romance I’ve ever seen. Imagine if more series did this instead of getting the dad figure with the daughter
