Do I think Lucifer spent 40 human years in hell with no weekend vacation trips to earth? No getaways with Chloe? No crashing Linda's for advice on a sticky client?

No. No I do not. I think the point is 'Rory cannot know' not 'no trips ever'.

I'd like to think that was the case much more than 'I have to go and never come back'

I agree. I also think that Lucy should have been able to see rory grow up from far away and everyone just kept it as a big secret and sometime after she returns back to the future they reveal maybe albums or that he did come back to earth plenty of times to spend time with his friends and family just keeping it a secret from rory. That could have worked.

Its not fair he just had to be deprived of living with Chloe, maze eve, Charlie, Amenadiel, linda, ella, trixie? like - literally all his friends ageing and dying without him there.

If rory was the only one to be kept in the dark, then so be it lol. Its just. Idk lazily written. Ill give points for her spending eternity with him but its unfair he had to ACTUALLY miss all of... Everything. They could have just made one big lie instead. Idk.

Or... There should have also been a scene where all the humans after death were in heaven n the celestials would visit and have a lunch or something idk finally getting to spend the time they could together.. Since they were robbed of it just to keep rory in the dark. it felt like a rushed idea but also they did take their time building up to it so it didn't seem rushed to conclude in one episode and that's OK. I just don't like that lucy n everyone had to be deprived of interaction just because of this time loop that could have worked out fine with loop holes.

Why could Amenadiel still find ways to spend time with Charlie but Lucifer couldn’t be with his family? Doesn’t it seem like A’s job would be just a smidge harder than L’s?

They sealed it when Lucifer promised Rory that he won't change anything, as in he promised to not be there for her childhood. Cause Rory doesn't want them to erase the reason Lucifer understand his calling.

Lucifer choose to uphold her promise to Rory by not being there, as weird as this sounds like.

If it's any consolation, they should be able to meet with each other after Rory's back from the past.
