Fairies weren't meant to make sense
They were literally only made for balance
Their attributes have nothing to do with actual fairies
They are weak against two types which before had little they were good against, and are good against three types with little weaknesses.

Here's a better question: why do Fairies resist Bug type?

Fae are beings of nature and sensitive to toxicity.

Fae are weak to Cold Iron or something like that.

Yes the weaknesses and resistances were made for balance reasons but you can still come up with excuses

The way I see it...

Fairy -> Dragon/Dark
>Dragons/Evil are the villains in fairy tales
Fairy -> Fighting
>Peace/Calmness in stead of violence and fighting

Steel -> Fairy
>Swords are often weapons in Fairy tales. Also, fairies exist in nature, far away from man made mechanization like steel.
Poison -> Fairy
>Poison is often the downfall/cause for strife in fairy tales, such as Snow White's poison apple and various evil potions, etc

By that logic I wouldn't be too surprised if the only reason why fairies resists bug is for Gardevoir to not have x4 weakness to bug.

Because Bug would be too strong of an offensive type. It is supposed to make bugs types have synergy with other offensive types.

Yes, it balances the game because if it didn't have enough resistances the game would be "lol specs bugbuzz" the meta. Look at water in comparison, it has good neutral coverage. You have to deal with shit like Keldeo.

You can say that about any type. What makes Bug so broken that they need to make it resisted by 1/3 of all types?
