I'm sorry but we need to talk about how knee tremblingly hot it is when Jack memorizes the surgery to repair Rotty's neck after hearing Belle read the case notes to him ONCE.
His stare at Belle's "you can't have gathered all that" I'm feral
And then when they finally do the surgery:
Belle: but how do you remember what to do it's been hours
Jack: a large thrombus developing proximal to their thread and occluding the artery the ligation will prevent the propagation of the clot

I love that SNW hyposprays can be delivered
to the shoulder (like in TOS)
or to the neck (like in TNG).
Therefore implying possible health care provider choice for hypospray placement and methodology … which makes this even funnier:

sexiest dodgerfox moments:
1. pls take off your dress so i can listen to your heartbeat i swear this is the only reason
2. dabbing some balm on the acid burn on your upper leg (after asking for consent)
3. let's cut open a dead body together while i gently guide your hand
4. hey let's kiss over the unconscious body of my colleague with a bullet in his leg who is laying on the operating table after i offered you to make the first incision
5. every make out scene in ep 6-8

After Belle recovers she follows her mother around constantly arguing that now she MUST marry Jack because they've slept together and otherwise her honour would be BESMIRCHED and she would be a LOOSE WOMAN and her mother can't execute him anymore because he saved Belle's life so finally she's like ok fine I see no other option.

I think you articulate what is so appealing about Jack's character very well, don't worry!
He absolutely is a version of the smartest person in the room genius character, but without the annoying character flaw and/or storyline wherein his ego gets the best of him. It's also super appealing that even as he and Belle achieve greater and greater things surgically, Jack STILL is bound by his social class, his sense of professionalism/ethics, and even his own insecurities peeking out from time to time.
It's a very nuaunced take on the genius character and honestly no one is doing it like Jack and this show tbh.
I could also talk at length about this show, so you're in good company 😄
An underrated Jack moment that I haven't seen discussed at all is the ep with Red's c-section. He's entirely confident in his ability to do it, but the second Red refuses his care he's thinking up the best possible alternative to save her life while respecting her wishes (and of course the solution is Belle). I can imagine someone like Sneed or the Prof insisting they do the surgery anyway "in her best interests" despite her wishes. Jack's unfailingly professional about it all though.
I’m sorry I’m so late to responding to this. Mideterms have been midterming haha 😅
But YES! You get it! I’ve said it before but there’s something so appealing about Jack’s character in that he has that snark and confidence and a little bit of arrogance that’s typical of the quick witted genius prodigy character types. But he’s still likable and not annoying because although he’s an asshole to people like Sneed or Gaines he’s respectful to people who are genuinely good or more disadvantaged than him.
I can’t quite explain exactly what it is other than vibes but he’s one of those “I’m better and smarter and more skilled than you” characters but in a different font because he does very much still have insecurities and morals. His wit and mind still aren’t quite enough to outweigh his station in society so he can’t just do whatever he wants. And like you mentioned with this episode he has extremely strong professionalism that he won’t compromise as a doctor he doesn’t put his arrogance above his patients like I feel we so often see with these types of characters.
I could talk about the storytelling genius of this show for hours lol but the point is yes you’re right that scene is so underrated!
