Your list still checks out in my book.
Gotta say that personally I don't necessarily dislike emancipation, was it underwhelming? Maybe.
But I do appreciate the story of someone that the society around them considers an underdog. Then reality sets in and they mop the floor with their opponent and hold a knife to their throat. And I appreciate that it is early enough(s1e3) in the series to show that Carter is not just the brains, but also a warrior.
Perhaps I'm imagining some sexism within our own 90's society, I was quite young, I'm not a women, and back then girls had cooties. But that is what it established, that Carter is a warrior. At this point, we had not seen her fight hand-to-hand. If some say it is underwhelming, I won't argue. But I think for it's time, the episode served it's purpose.
