I don't necessarily agree with you, but I do get what you are saying It maybe was a little corny that they were SO similar but for me, I liked that they had so much in common. For Ted and Robin, their relationship was on/off for so long because they had too many differences and they wanted different things, so it was nice that Ted found someone that he loved, who also was very similar to him.
