"5-6 years ago, I think, which introduced me to the interesting and startling realization that some people just do not like this thing that I like"

I went with 'I like it in specific circumstances' because it depends on the canon as well. Some canons are very team/crew-focused, and for those kind of canons, the group hurt/comfort makes a lot of sense, and some canons a very duo-focused or focused on one character, and there one-on-one hurt/comfort makes a lot of sense.
