Yor is such a weird character.
- In professional mode: highly competent, carries a mission with no backup, spontaneous genius in combat.
- In day to day mode: complete ditz, subservient to anyone who talks to her, barely understands the world around her. No it’s not an act.

There’s plenty of real people who are highly competent at their job but very socially inept. We might call such people “nerds”, “a gifted child”, or even “autistic” depending on the specifics and severity.
The show makes it clear both sides are propagandized to assume they are better than the other side regardless of how true that is, and it avoids making specific comparisons to keep that vague.
The point of the show is presenting 3 people (or 4 if you include the dog) that have some special talent but are socially awkward, and showing them work well together as a family despite frequent comedic mishaps. Honestly not even that out there for a show premise.
But hey, people have different tastes. If cute unconventional family comedy isn’t yours, just don’t watch it.

Her spectrum is strong then, because its like she has complete amnesia of what she’s capable of when daydreaming through her day life.
As for the fair propaganda, we barely see the East and the West is always portrayed in a gleaming opulent light. The negative aspects of Anna’s posh school usually boil down to one or two bad characters, whilst the rest of it is celebrated with fireworks and fancy dinners without any open hint of disdain at needless waste of it.
They do work well as a family, I’m just worried that Yorr might actually mentally be a child and that Lloyd is exploiting that. It feels weird man.
But yes, I agree, different strokes
