I dont know about the reality critique. Early Seinfeld was pretty grounded.It wasnt until later that things get wacky.
And the likeability critique is fine, but comparing a 9 season network (episode order is why I make that distinction) series finale to 17 episodes of a series seems a bit unfair

it still isn't a showcase for reality...even early on in the series
seinfeld is a conversational-physical comedy exposing societal norms. it's characters are not real people. they are archetypes that allow the examination to commence. they're not real people, and they don't act like real people.
the whole point of the final was to make sure the audience understood this. over 8-9 years people had forgotten how bad/fake these characters were, and the final joke was "holy shite you people actually thought these were supposed to be good people that you cheered for? cereal?"
