Yeah, I’m not sure if that’s where is going - I think the show critically deconstructs romcoms too much to play into that trope? Think it might just be closure/nice ending for Nathaniel.

Tbf (and I guess this is to your point about Nathaniel now filling the Greg role) Greg as a character was all about toxic masculinity as well, right? The punch a wall stuff. But obviously that's now gone from him – and as you say, we didn't get to see that process.
I really liked this episode's return to 'oh yeah, Greg is a grumpus, in a slightly pretentious the-lad-from-"You", better-than-other-people I-was-the-only-guy-in-my-small-town-school-who-read-Salinger kind of way', because... without the toxicity, I'm not quite sure who he is.

He's just a love interest - like Josh was. He isn't afforded much of the interiority which is given to Nathaniel or Josh Season 4.

And (I'm starting to get a bit lost in the thread of this) how much of that do you think is intentional on the show's part?

...Which is a dreadful thing to say about a person, but I think reasonable about a character. I need flaws to grip onto, and in the absence of those, they haven't really established what nuGreg's deal is.
