I would argue that Eros is perfectly fine with the Jedi. In the novels and comics, Jedi have sexual relationships all the damn time. Padawans regularly have trists with other padawans, Jedi have one night stands, all kinds of stuff without fear of being expelled from the order.
I don’t think there’s a clean way to apply the Greek loves here really. It’s more like they’re forbidden from going too deep into philia? Ultimately ‘Attachment’ is not a kind of love, it’s a fear, and fear is the enemy of all Jedi. If you can love someone without being afraid to lose them, then there’s no issue, but that’s obviously an incredibly difficult concept. That’s why it’s easier to just keep some level of detachment from others.
