Ship Archetypes: Beyond blond/brunette and smol/tol

Writing up my shipping preferences for my recent sticky post inspired me to write up a ship manifesto of sorts, not for a particular ship, but for a ship archetype.

I noticed after a while that the vast majority of the slash ships I like fall into an obvious pattern: the knight and the wizard.
( it all goes back to Athuriana in the end, doesn't it? )

Any questions about why I classified these ships the way I did? Can you think of any "wizard/knight" ships I didn't list? Do you notice any recognizable ship archetypes in your own fandom tastes?
