Yeah and we could have speculated/pretended its because he was brainwashed, but he had to specifically point out that he tried his very best so Kara was Earths top hero now

If it had been Connor Kent(Clone) from Teen Titans or a male Kryptonian, Clark would've taken the top spot back immediately. But Kara is a girl and that girl power push is more all encompassing now than ever.
Well, this is the same show that IIRC had an episode where they had to go to a planet that killed everything with a Y chromosome, cuz reasons, just so that they could make an all-girl team who could rag on the guys while they did the mission.

The issue though is that the "feminists" in power and the men who want to appease them think that feminism = men are inferior now. Not women are equal in all ways they can be equal but there are still differences between male and female.
They've done a much better job in the solo show of handling his power level than previously. Unlike just jobbing (like they had him occasionally do on Supergirl to make her shine), whenever Clark tends to struggle or lose a fight in his show it's due to some kind of weakness exploitation, like kryptonite or red sun radiation.
Also, I much prefer the heat vision effects here compared to Supergirl.
Looks like they took inspiration from MOS for it.

Or sometimes he seems to be losing, but then gets serious and stomps.
Seen the first 5 episodes now. Had to pirate, as its the only CW Dc show which hasnt restarted (or in this case just started) here and still has no release date or even confirmation of what channel or streaming service it will be on. And its the one I most wanted to watch.
So screw them for making me wait so long just to pirate.
Yeah, he tends to gauge his opponent's abilities to see how strong/tough they are and adjusts accordingly, so as not to use too much force. They also go into it a bit more in later episodes about how he's always holding back his full power.
