So Superman didn't marry Luma Lyna because of the sunlight, issue. Not because she looks just like his first cousin, and that might've been weird?

He probably figured, "Not only does Luma look like Kara, but she too probably has a man-in-a-horse's-body pining for her. It'd be awkward."

I think Superman and Supergirl were infatuated with each other at that point, but them being cousins got inthe way of their love.

Oh, right. Now that you mention it, I seem to vaguely recall Superman making it very clear that the only reason he's not pursuing a relationship with her is because it's against Kryptonian custom.

It was his first cousin who fixed Superman up with Luma in the first place. He had no hope of avoiding the weird.

Honestly I have never even heard of Luma Lyna before this. I can only assume someone threw a picture of Supergirl in there not realizing they were cousins and they changed the costume and dialog to make it someone else.
