Arguably, the same could be said about the Avatar, a union of two heroes...
Certainly. If that was how we were first introduced to the Avatar I might even have been the one to say it. But the origin of the Avatar was only explained after we had already seen two incarnations of the cycle, both well developed, interesting characters. Additionally, since the Avatar has already been well established when the Dark Avatar is introduced it doesn't come across as an original or creative villain.
