That's pretty much what it will be. The Netflix shows do that, so Hulu will probably do the same. That's really all we need. Just knowing it's in the MCU is enough. Well, I agree that just knowing it's in the MCU is enough, but there's been plenty of connections between the Netflix shows and the other ones. There's been a lack of explicit references, yes, but not connections.

-St. Agnes, Skye's orphanage, is mentioned in Daredevil.

-Carl Creel, who fights Matt Murdock's dad, is on Agents of SHIELD. Also, S3E14 mentions the gang wars in Hell's Kitchen, and S4E10 has what is almost assuredly the Judas Bullet from Luke Cage. Micro, the Punisher's sidekick, is mentioned in S2E7.

-Agent Carter S1 has the New York Bulletin, which is used throughout the Netflix shows. The NYB can also be seen in the AoS S3 finale.

-The Dogs of Hell from Agents of SHIELD S1E15 shows up in Daredevil S2. Daredevil S2 also has a Cybertek Easter egg on an issue of NYB, which was in AoS S1.

These Easter eggs are very small, but they enhance the MCU for me. When I say I want connections between the shows, this is the kind of stuff I'm talking about. And with the same people writing/directing across multiple MCU properties, it's very possible. Hey, do we actually have a list of these "connective tissue" easter eggs and connections here on the Wikia? It would actually be a very interesting page and I'm sure users would find out stuff they never knew before.
