The convenient plot device of hitting someone on the head just right to knock them out in one hit without causing brain damage or death. Oh, and the person just wakes up, rubs their head for a second, and they’re back to normal.

This is my biggest issue I've found rewatching daredevil, he's so against killing people yet the number of people he's knocked out would mean he's killed many or given a lot of people brain damage.

It'd be funny to see a superhero make this explicit.

After killing 30 people by snapping their necks, spraying them in the face with poison gas, manipulating them with torture or torture by proxy with their kids, etc.:

'I'm morally superior because I don't draw blood. It doesn't matter if they die. I don't draw blood.'

'That guy coughed up some blood after what you did to him.'

'NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I'm morally conflicted now!'

Yep or they have amnesia (often cured by a second blow to the head)
