Sola's feelings for Lancer are as genuine as Kayneth's for hers. The three of them are completely dysfunctional with each others. Sola emotionally hurts Kayneth who wounds Lancer who wounds Sola. Yet somehow you qualify her motivations as "shallow crush". Like I said before, the whole twisting him only psychologically wound him, there was no physical pain at all. The whole scene was to portray how horrifyingly unrequited everyone's feelings were. *shrugs*

Again with the assumptions. There's no indication that Sola's love was genuine.

The thing is, those reasons were kind of dimmed when came to the emotional ones. Most of these traditional Magi are sorta inept with their feelings.

Sola was smitten with Lancer easily due to this nature and her indifference towards Kayneth. Thus most likely willingly letting herself be affected by the curse, twisting her infatuations into a facade of love.
There was no genuine development of love.
And not to mention, the legend stated that Gráinne was affected by the curse. And tricked Diarmuid into accepting a geis (swearing to protect her), then forcing his hands by creating a situation that would make him take her away.
Thus you can't really say the love was genuine when it was mostly the result of the curse.
