But it is.
Once Superman stops being just one guy's nickname, and grows into the idea of a title with a standard of expectations that come with it, it's a job. Making the successor to the throne have to deal with it in that way (both the good and the bad of it) is smart. Making the successor get so smart and dedicated about it that they literally itemize their day down to the millisecond is down right inspired of a take.
And one of the coolest parts is that Jon's *not* just dealing with or worried about the sort of stuff Clark would deal with. This issue of Superman/Wonder Woman explains that he's because he's half human he doesn't put himself on the outside of human issues, and that he recognizes that even beyond Solaris, Brainiac, Darkseid, and whomever else, it was ultimately humans that brought themselves nearest to destruction. And as both part human and new holder of the Superman title it's his job to hold people accountable in the same way he holds himself accountable.
But beyond that, you're also looking at a Jon who is decades into the job (he's in his late 30s early 40s here) and the world has progressed so far and feels nearly utopian. So he's not dealing with the same sort of issues he was in Superman of Metropolis.
