No, not controversial, it's just a complex and ambiguous topic. You're not necessarily wrong, it's just also more nuanced than that. I tend to think that all humans are generally
capable of (and maybe even prone to?) romantic love for more than one partner, but whether or not you engage in a polyamorous lifestyle vs a monogamous one is more a matter of preference and logistics than it is an identity.
