For me it still begs the question as to why water is his Kryptonite but not for his new friends. Purely as a nerdy academic exercise, I won't lose sleep over it.

This is where it falls down for me and causes me to nerd-pick: he almost drowns but Bo's people can move and breathe just fine underwater? What makes their helmets and armour different? I might accept it as a plot device if I thought it was necessary, but I'm not seeing it.

The above point I'll concede to you and Buffinator. It's the *cause* I have more of an issue with than the consequences.
Gotta go back and look, but
Combination of weight including wet cloak and vaguely remember something about cold shock on a human system. If you've been on a watery planet for a while you are probably more used to diving in.
TBH Mando's armor looks a lot more upscale than the Night Owls; they didn't seem to be carrying explosives either. Night Owls are more stripped down. Also Mando had been trying to breath and dealing with spears being poked at him.
I am more baffled about the baby frog growth....like Prometheus when the squid baby morphed to a gigantic size with no nutrition in a few hours. WTF.
But, OK, it's scifi.
Regarding why mando seems to be having issue with water
it seems the nite owls helmet has a suction thing going on when removing, implying some kind in in built breathing system.
Don?t remember mando helmet having that when he took of his helmet in season one.
So instead of nitpicking the answer is right there, his helmet doesn?t have a breathing system
BOSCH!!!!
This episode was amazing. Was shocked to see Bryce directed it. Totally redeemed herself.

I thought you'd be surprised!
Glad you enjoyed it. One of the shorter ones, but chock-full of goodies.
Interesting wrinkle in Mando's character development ... he's probably just not that good.
The Quarren lured him into a trap that any skilled bounty hunter should've spotted. As mentioned earlier, he jumped in after The Child without thinking. These two instances on top of the other things people have mentioned, like Cara Dune getting the drop on him.
And the other interesting tidbit re-inforced by Bo-Katan, he was trained by 'the bad guys'.
It's interesting seeing real Mandalorians (born on Mandalore) tell The Mandalorian that he's wrong about what The Way is all about. Hopefully the show deals with that a bit more in future episodes. I'm more interested in a story arc rather than these quick little planet-hopping visits that has become the format of the show.
Tony Stark probably shouldn't survive most of the impacts he sustains as Iron Man if it were realistic. Seems like there's little to no room for cushioning inside his suits and with the speed he travels at and the maneuvers he pulls I feel like his body would be getting ripped apart at the joints and smashed.
It?s pandering when they take a competent male character and make him incompetent in multiple ways just to show the competence of the female character. Million different ways to show how Cara is a badass without making Mando come off as weak and dumb. .
I don't think it's that he isn't that good, it's that his love for The Child and want/desperation to reunite him with the Jedi is causing him to take these risks and throw himself after The Child without hesitation.
