Honestly Hinata becoming a housewife didnt bother me because it made sense given what we know of her character. Just bevause she theoretically would have good fighting abilities doesn't mean she has an interest in being a fighter. Sakura really should have gotten over Sasuke and found someone that she was attracted to that also treated her well. I feel that Kishimoto didn't understand that a longterm romantic relationship needs to be both a romantic relationship and a deep friendship. This makes the romantic relationships in Naruto even sadder because the mangaka can right the type of friendships that lend themselves to romance so well hence the sasunaru shippers. Another issue that Kishimoto had was thinking that fangirling lent itself to actual romances, both asakura and Hinata fangirl over there love interests, which is already abnormal because girls dont typically fangirl over their classmates.
Hinata's personality not really being one of someone who likes doing "ninja" work is why it's a pretty minor gripe. I just wish we saw more of her as a combatant after getting Hamura's chakra
Yeah Naruto's and Hinata's relationship completely died after the movie. In Boruto it doesn't even looks like he cares about her. I've watched the movie multiple times just for the great romance and fight scenes.
"Hinata should be one of the strongest Ninja" so should´ve been Neji and Shino who have no role in Shippuden and Sakura who is tossed to the waysight again after the Sasori fight. I honestly don´t get why Kishimoto didn´t advance Hinata and Narutos relationship in the manga. He even wrote her confessing to Naruto during Pain´s invasion of Konoha yet that is an afterthought once the situation is solved. Same goes when Neji dies in the Ninja war (boy was that a let down). Naruto The Last was a boring mess that sucked imho and as you said as a casual fan you shouldn´t need to watch/read additional stuff in order to get the relationships. Bleach suffered the same fate.
Too many characters were sidelined. Unfortunately Naruto fell short when it came to it's side cast. Naruto and Hinata should've been built up to. Not all thrown in an epilogue movie
I believe it's a problem within some shonen mangaka that they don't write romance very well. IIRC, some have even admitted that they don't know how to or can't. Opinion: the only pair which I 'could' possibly say was written and shown "well" would be Shikamaru and Temari. I could go on an entire rant, but I won't here.

boruto doesnt count
While I don't have much to say about it, it does lose its "spark" after the movie

If u have a rant then go for it but I do agree with what you've said. Several shounen mangaka have admitted that they can't write romance
