I just find the idea that the WW2 vet is somehow put off by swearing or would find the idea of it off-putting annoying, it's not a 'this makes the movie bad' thing, I just find it irritating, probably coupled with fandom(at that time) making a habit of writing Steve as some idiot-child who couldn't figure out computers and other people swearing making him faint.

The 'Only one god' line I just find to be clunky and a bit too quippy? Which is silly to say about a movie full of one-liners, but I think for me it just hit maximum 'quip' and I didn't jive with it. Idk, I don't have much of a logical rationale for my dislike of that line, I just find it kind of annoying that's all.

That's fair. I rewatched the scene a moment ago and Tony's line, "I have a plan: attack," strikes me as way too quippy and unsubtle and eye-roll inducing. So I definitely get the whole, "eek, nope, too quippy" response. Joss does go there sometimes, for sure. I mean, he's really, really good at writing quippy lines. But sometimes he goes too far.
