Why is steel...weak to fighting?

The best fighter in the world is still going to break his hand if he punches a steel door, much less a steel dinosaur.

Shouldn't it be the other way around?

On a related note, why is fire good against steel? Assuming its because fire melts steel, but then are we to assume that all fire produced by fire Pokemon is hot enough to melt steel? Wouldn't water evaporate at that temperature?

that's possibly because steel pokemon are still living things with organs and shit, and steel is a good conductor, therefore you are basically cooking them inside their own armor

which then leads to another fucking argument about "then why is electric not SE against steel" that I don't feel like having again

Because in the case of most pure-steel pokemon, a full suit of steel would run the charge harmlessly through the steel and straight to ground.

Do you even know how electricity works? Why else would a car be the safest place to stay when in a massive lightning storm? Why do lightning rods not explode and cook every time they get struck?

that would make them immune to electric then

but besides, no, I don't know how electricity works like the ignorant swine I am; I knew that fact about cars being safe from lightning storm but there's no actual metal touching the ground in a car is there? there's... tires

also some time ago someone explained to me shit I can't remember about resistance and the fact that electric should be SE against steel, but again I don't fucking know/remember

i read somewhere that Psychic is weak against Dark, Ghost and Bug types because those represent fear, which controls the mind.
i don't know why Ghost and Bug share this relation though

maybe it's an arbitrary "fear versus fear" thing and ghosts are a bigger fear according to john gamefreak

then dark is SE against ghost because of unrelated reasons to fear

bad example is bad, but for any other monotype such as water or fire that otherwise looks like a regular animal (think Pikachu, pre-fairy Marill, most elemental monotypes etc.) you would actually have a point
