I got the impression from the comic that Sally, in the end, fell in love (or, at least what she considers love) with Edward. I don't consider it a love story at all and I don't consider *that relationship* as "the heart" of the story.
I sense that Hayter is incapable at communicating the story to anyone outside already established Watchmen people. He is seeing the film and the world from an already established perspective and can't communicate outside of that perspective, speaking with in-context references to the material. He's blind to his language because he's being one of those fanboys who thinks he's clever and not realizing what he's actually saying. Not that it excuses it, but I see that as the reason for the display of stupidity.
