It's so badly written because they ignore decades of characterization and make characters behave in a way they never would, Scott would never accept to share his wife with anyone, let alone the creepy ******* who's tried to steal her from him for a long time, tried to destroy Utopia, kill Hope, kill him, talked **** about him to anyone, etc, we have a lot of evidence that shows that Scott would never accept such a stupid idea but the X-Office is plagued by Cyclops haters and writers who couldn't care less about his character like Hickman so they decided to go against common sense just so their precious Wolverine can be with the married woman he's shamelessly pursued for years despite being in a relationship, basically rewarding him for being a disgusting creep while punishing Scott.
This era has permanently ruined Scott and Jean's relationship imo, they tried to portray them as a married couple but ended up looking like glorified friends with benefits or worse, Scott is a Jean simp while she can't even be committed to him and cheated on him with Wolverine... being just one of the two men your wife loves is absolutely pathetic, that moment at the last gala when Jean leaves Scott while he's begging her to stay to tell Wolverine that she loves him is such an insult to Scott's character that I don't want to see them together ever again.
