As our minds get more complex we start to appreciate deeper Disney characters like Meg. Disney is just very afraid to portray characters outside the 'pretty nice girl mold' as Princesses with the exception of Tiana.
Its fine to have a love story but its the same love story over and over. Handsome man meets beatiful girl, they fall in love. Beauty and the Beast and Mulan kinda breaks this trope but that is the only exception I can think at the top of my head.

Yes you don't ever see heavier girl getting handsome guy or vice versa, or average girl getting average guy. It sets pretty high standards for people because we really don't often look as great in a seashell bikini as Ariel or can be living in the wilderness and still look like a model like Pocahontas. Its good to have imagination when it comes to these fairytale movies but there's still the need to relate to them to an extent and I think if Disney made the princesses more like us then the movies would be even more of a hit than they are.
