Regarding the poor communication thing: I agree that it's frustrating, but once I realized that them being a dysfunctional family is the entire premise of the show, I was a lot more accepting of it while watching. They all have intense bottled up feelings about each other, it's actually realistic that they're complete failures at communication.
I agree. Especially with Reginald. Given his unique circumstances and past. Him being an absolutely obtuse and unapologetic poor communicator can make a lot of sense.
Even season 2 to season 3, Reginald takes his feedback and goes off in a weird tangent instead of becoming a better communicator. And for his background that can make a lot of sense.
I just wish we'd fleshed out Reginald's motivations more even if they were crazy
