True. But up until that point, I think a lot of people who were skeptical were willing to give New 52 a chance until it became obvious that the old status quo wasn't going to be restored. Then, I think, a lot of people lost interest. Keep in mind, New 52 was a hard sell. I remember all the fan outrage when they did the relationship. I personally don't really care. I'm just saying I think one of the biggest selling points was the idea that the relationship would be restored because when it first came out, people were shocked Lois was dating someone else.
