Fallout really said "what if we took the age old trope of the evil wife and turned it on its head. What if the great evils are the system and the money, not the individual, and the individual holds so much love" and it's beautiful...
Instead of revenge on the bitch wife we get YEARNING for the woman who had to make these impossible and awful choices. We get Cooper smiling at her handwriting on that postcard after 200 years of bitterness. We get something new, something that's turning its back on cynicism and embracing hope, no matter what's to come. It's refreshingly mature, in a way - two adults who manage to love each other even when the literal deep state wants them apart, a divorce that isn't a screeching mess but a sad necessity, and a child so loved that her parents would ultimately try to save the world just for her. Yeah. Yeah...
