The people they were "baiting" were the incel misogynist bigot brigade. Getting irked about that makes as much sense as hating on Indiana Jones films because of the anti-Nazi rhetoric, and complaining that it should be "more open to a broader (Nazi) audience" and "stop being political".
If those are the arguments you're making, on that kind of basis, you're exactly the kind of person who deserves that kind of baiting and mockery. They fired the first "shots", through their rhetoric, and whining about shows like this firing back is just eminently pathetic.
If you don't like a thing that other people enjoy, then the onus is on you to go find something you
do enjoy, not to spend your time trying to ruin other people's enjoyment. Especially when your
entire argument boils down to "I don't like a thing so nobody should like it." I don't like professional sports, so I don't watch them; I don't hate-watch them and post on forums about how stupid it is and how every team sucks. I'm not a fan of period dramas, especially 19th-century-set ones, so I don't watch shows like Downton Abbey or Bridgerton, but I don't go around forums for fans telling them their show sucks. It doesn't. It's a great show.
I just don't like that
kind of thing, so I'll spend my time watching stuff I
do enjoy.

That's a rather garbage "review". I'd just like to pluck out one bit;
I knew my hunch was right when, in the final episode, Jen looks to the camera in one of her many asides to the audience and says, “This is a mess. None of these storylines make sense.”
They don’t; they never did. That’s where my problems with She-Hulk start.
When your "problem" with the show is
literally a meta problem the show is explicitly calling out, itself, then your actual "problem" is either that you're not paying attention, or this rather uncomplicated show flew over your head somehow.
It's like trying to claim that Back to the Future is a terrible movie because of the lack of continuity when Marty returns to his original present time, when that lack of continuity is explicitly meant to demonstrate how his actions caused the timeline to change. That's literally the point of the film. Calling it out isn't witty, it means you don't understand the film. Same here; the fact that weird-ass storylines all get pulled into big epic finales constantly in MCU films
is silly. So the show pointed out that it's silly, as metacommentary, and then . . . didn't
do that. The show wasn't making mistakes, there.
It's not that frickin' complicated.
You can't call it "misjudgements" when the entire intentional
point was that they're silly and She-Hulk's gonna call that out. It's not like they were writing this show and got to Ep 9 and realized it was a mess
then. It was crafted to
be that mess,
on purpose; that's literally the
story. That's the point.
