@SphinxLord I don't think that's really Arknights it's self, so much as it is people in most fandoms that love to make ships out of the enemies to lovers trope, personally I think it can be a good one. That said, I don't think they were really ever "enemies"? Just kind of antagonistic allies, that still cared about each other in their own cynical ways.
Edit: I'm also not sure what major Arknights ships are enemies to lovers? Saria and Silence aren't enemies, they have a strained relationship in the game due to various circumstances, but I wouldn't say that makes them enemies. Lappland and Texas seem to have a complicated and messy relationship that's mostly a mystery from what I know, but I personally wouldn't exactly call them enemies. Texas escaped the mafia life, and Lappland's quickly declining sanity and physical health has her seemingly seeking a death at the hands of an old connection. Hopefully I'm remembering correctly here, but yeah from what I know their relationship is a bit more complicated than simply enemies. Though I might be over thinking things, and maybe enemies to lovers is a more broad and simple label than my definition of it.
