What were the reasons for separating the concept of "Love" from "Oneness"? Why do you think that's useful?

You define the difference as love being a choice to connect, and oneness being as recognizing the preexisting connection.

Would it be wrong to say one is unconditional love of self, the other unconditional love of all things? I'm having a hard time figuring out why the two must be separate.
