What a disgusting sentiment that proves he does not understand the character at all

Karen literally had a whole rambling monologue to Matt in the church basement in S3 that aimed to instill guilt about what killing does to a person but now there's revisionist history happening like she's always wanted Matt to kill Fisk?

Implying that the man who the Marvel comics asked to write a foreword for the new Daredevil comics collection doesn't understand the character or his comics just because of an opinion about Matt's love life is nothing short of laughable.

Charlie got very sick filming Born Again S2 the week after spending hours of him being dunked in the dirty Hudson River for a scene. He's doing all these and more just to end up having to deal with a petty and puerile Daredevil fandom who sends him hate just because they take FICTIONAL characters and ships way too seriously.

All this pearl clutching and hoopla because of a 20 second answer he gave at a comic con panel. Sorry he didn't go into a full dissertation that fulfilled your "nuance requirement" with his take on a fictional comic book character right then and there I guess.

They did not have Foggy haunting the narrative all season long and Matt kissing his card for that

We also did not have Matt attending a family barbeque with Jennifer's family for that

And Elektra is already planned to come back according to the showrunners and we know she'll literally burn NYC to the ground to get to Matt

Charlie's on his A game all season

I often keep seeing people complain about the lack of connection between her and Matt...which is literally the point. It's the most surface-level romance Matt has had so far. Even with his dalliance with Jennifer/She-Hulk he had a deeper conversation with about their shared experience of being a vigilante and lawyer.

Meanwhile, Matt has refused to open up to Heather, and wouldn't even take off his glasses around her while cooking dinner for her - that's the level of how closed off he is in this relationship. And when she starts to bring up Foggy, all Matt opens up with is the whiskey they used to drink, nothing more. Then we see Matt's clearly faked and put-on smiles whenever she enters the room. After they slept together, the misery on Matt's face is telling

There is also a lack of opening up from Heather, and about the fact that she is the therapist for Matt's archnemesis, but of course she isn't allowed to disclose that.

The point is, this romance is clearly intentionally written to be shallow, to be nothing but a part of a farce for Matt as he represses his grief and live the 'normal life' Foggy wanted him to live. It's not a romance meant to be written as deep or endgame, of course you wouldn't feel the same connection Matt has with women he has actual history with like Karen, Elektra, or even Claire. So I really don't get the complaints about the lack of connection, if anything it emphasizes the loss of Matt's actual connection in his life with the loss of Foggy and Karen.

Meanwhile Karen, someone who has access to crime rate numbers, says this definitively according to actual statistical proof:

In Born Again, they say that crime rate has gone up significantly due to Daredevil's retirement.

In real life, killing criminals never had any empirical proof to back up its effectiveness. Especially when said killing involves people at the low or middle of the criminal hierarchy. Killing crime bosses or drug lords has also historically done nothing to make a significant dent on crime rate.
