It was old then. Tanigawa's "just grab the blade" was much more original, and poweful, as it shows that Yuki has
little regard for her physical body. Especially when it comes to Kyon, even at this point in the story. And a sword? What's wrong with a knife? Not "macho" enough (author hasn't seen any good knife fights then)? Or does male!Asakura have "compensation issues"?

Yare, yare... This is why I avoid fanfic...
You know it is not here you should be complaning right? By the way, the only reason for being a sword is because of fanart. The original one has a sword, and since then, most have a sword as well.

Anyway, I don't see why Melancholy is absolutelly horrible when it comes to Nagato. She, like all other SOS members, has some nice scenes there (Ryouko fight, the visit to the library and the original exposition). Books horrible to Nagato are Sighs and Boredom, in my opinion (some good scenes, but nothing really worthnote)
