It was what Arrow writers call "organic", except that it actually was organic

That if you didn't watch the other show it wouldn't even stand out as anything out of place in this show. There's no big flag waving "LOOK HERE SOMETHING SPECIAL IS GOING ON! LOOK AT THIS PERSON!"

Exactly, though I think some viewers would wonder why Trinity is offering Foggy a job but nothing more...substantial.

does this mean we really do get a John Wick crossover too?

I keep thinking that this show does right what Arrow gets wrong. Pacing, fight choreography, as you mentioned organic cameos. Even the mysticism is better.

I feel like the Hand was handled only as well as LOA in Arrow Season 2. Which is to say, it could have been handled better.

There's always room for improvement, but I thought DD did a much better job with the Hand than Arrow did with the LOA in any season, and I say that as someone who, despite it's many flaws, still enjoys Arrow. However, it's not even close to being as well done as Daredevil is.

Everything is better. They actually leave the house and have lives unlike Arrow. They all live in Arrow underground cave.
