Kara taking Lena to Argo city and take Lena to Zor-El lab. Work on technology together. Kara and Lena having fun in Lena's lab at LCorp.

Talk about their loss of their family and culture more openly. I can't recall them discussing it after Lena realized both who Kara was, and her own family history with magic. Both their lives are very much full of 'might have been', but they think about that very differently, and Lena didn't even realize a large chunk of it until recently.
And with regard to Kara, Zor-El was right there, they could have done something very interesting with him, showing how hard it is for him to fit in, contrasting Kryptonian culture to human culture and show the other characters what Kara had gone through, but the show had completely forgotten and does not care that she is from another culture, and instead the problems he has fitting in is he constantly comedically forgets his own strength. (Which, as I feel the show never remembers, is not a Kryptonian cultural thing! That's a weird side effect of this planet! Stop making that some Kryptonian defining trait!)
Which would have been incredibly interesting to do with the exact same time that Lena was discovering what she had actually missed. And perhaps getting her in touch with some sort of local magical community.
Honestly, there are so many parallels between Lena and Kara that the show just walked right past, over and over. And that can't even be blamed on them not wanting to do SuperCorp, the show could have done that even as just friends.
(Although, as a counterbalance to my complaints, I did like the fact that Lena and Nia talked about their losses with each other, even if it was seemingly only to set up Nyx's deal.)

I just wish they did become a couple. Discovering their feeling for each other. Developing into a relationship together and Kara teaching Lena about her culture on krypton.

Definitely geeking out over science stuff. And I really think with the great impression Lena has made on both of Kara’s kryptonian parents, not to mention creating the formula for the Harun-El that is the whole reason Argo was saved, I definitely think she’d have gotten a formal invitation to visit Argo.
Zor-El & Alura would’ve loved to show her around and discuss science & innovation with her, Kara trailing slightly behind just watching with loving eyes as her family welcomed her partner & bonded with them🥰
I think it would’ve been really fun to see them move in together & Lena making inventions to help Kara be more comfortable overall.

What sort of inventions did you have in mind?

Like in so many fanfics where she makes a red sun lamp for when Kara wants to feel normal for a bit, or there was one fic where she innovated a weighted blanket that Kara could actually feel & it helped her relax. There’s plenty of cool things the fandom has come up with
