Apart from everything else, Clark's little slip up, "what's my- I mean, what's his end game?" has to be something Lois would pick up on. It's always been head canon for me that within days to weeks of Kent and Superman appearing, Lois was putting 2 and 2 together (barring any "he constantly vibrates to blur his features" handwaves). But it not only confused her at first, it genuinely irritated her to have this guy competing with her to report on himself, have to conversations with her in a given day (pretending he was a different person each time). I can get why a friendship with either, let alone romantic relationship, would be hard to build at first. But Lois HAD to see it from early on. She just played Kent's game for whatever reason. (also 'cuz if some demi-god wants to pretend to be normal, you gonna call him out on it?)

Also how I bet Jim Gordon knew for a long time who Batman was, but it's that open secret: if I admit I know, I'll have to arrest you. (If Lois says who Superman is, or who she thinks he is, she'd have to write a story on it.)
