i know i'm super late to this party but also fisk's actor has autism. idk if he was projecting any of that onto the character (d'onofrio has referred to fisk as childish so i don't think i could go further into this w/o getting uncomfortable b/c i'm autistic myself and would rather not someone's autistic traits be referred to as that, but d'onofrio has the right to speak abt it any way he wishes) but yeah that may explain why ppl were interpreting him that way.

also yes! i keep saying that despite matt having a flair for the dramatic and being better at wowing the courtroom assembly, foggy's far better at financing, research, and just generally compartmentalizing. he's one of those guys who seems like a total goofball at first but then you find out he's the one pretty much running things at his job. so while foggy knows matt may be more charasmatic, he's basically the one sidestage mouthing lines to him.
