Does this show ever get confused with the prior one Lois & Clark? Seems like people might get confused and think they are downloading Superman & Lois and get Lois & Clark instead, the names are very similar.
the crossovers are cancelled this year due to covid

Yeah, I didn't think there would be a sensible reason to crossover with Ryan Wilder anyways.
Honestly, I find it a bit odd we're 1 month away from the premiere and we don't have a trailer yet, besides that teaser. Even Batwoman has one. I wonder why. Maybe special effects need more polishing? I'd assume that would be done for episode 1.
Infinite Crisis? Zero Hour? Don't tempt them, they might try DC One Million.
The trailer might not have done well and they're hoping the pilot gets a good response anyway, so rather than tank interest they're going in blind and hoping the IP does the work for them.
To be honest, the audience the CW has cultivated doesn't strike me as hungry for Superman in particular, but I guess we'll see.

I think they might have blown their load with COIE, even they know this. They'll probably stick to smaller scale crossovers between the shows like when Arrow and Flash crossed back in 2014 and 2015, I genuinely think those were some of the best crossovers of the CW verse. They'll probably stick to that until they're ready put an exclamation mark on the universe, which is when they'll likely go balls to the walls.
I don't really see how any trailer they could have brought down much of any more criticism than the Flash, Supergirl, Batwoman trailers did. I don't think at this point they're worried about a negative response since they know how it works with these shows now, anyway.
As for Superman not interesting CW audiences, this is the same network where fans were willing to give Green Arrow, Flash, Supergirl, and the team of c all the way to z listers the time of day, so I definitely think people will flock to a Superman show. Heck, I expect it to be their best show in ratings surpassing Flash. Smallville was a hit, and this in a way is a spiritual successor of that, so I have no doubt it'll do fine
