FYI, the canonical final goal of Buddhism is the eradication ("pulling out by the root", and therefore no possibility of growth back) of greed, hate and ignorance within one's psychology.

AFAIK, that is correct yet incomplete, the idea is to get rid of all mundane interests, both good and bad. So that'd include love, joy and even mercy (though most of buddhism has a contradiction here, since it suggests you do good for others)
