(Separate response to address what you said about good Isekai.)

Yes, I absolutely agree that there are good and bad Isekai just like there are good and bad Fantasy.

The issue with Isekai at a fundamental level is that, probably, 95% of them don't actually need to be Isekai. It's just an extra, unneeded step.

In the case of Mushuko Tensei, Rudeus' ability to read Japanese actually plays into the plot. That, plus the whole overarching therapy plot, gives purpose to the Isekai property of that show.
