I myself reset until I got a perfect score, which is annoying because not nailing the interrogations counts as "missing evidence" because the game asking you to read the face capture to be able to tell what someone was thinking was stupid and extremely poorly thought out.
To be fair to them, that was literally the entire point of the game in their eyes, and the only reason the game existed in the form it did in the first place. Most of the actual investigations, free roam, and general gameplay outside of the interrogations were added after the fact to justify why you'd be questioning people and trying to read their facial quirks.

It turns out everyone you arrested was innocent regardless of if you 100% every case. Yes, it's a stupid, horrible plot twist. No matter how much evidence and information you have, you were wrong because every single suspect was innocent.
That's not actually true.
If I recall correctly, it's only true during the homicide cases, because the real killer is deliberately framing other people, and you eventually catch them at the end of the homicide arc. Other than that, I don't remember any other cases where you're expected to catch the "wrong" person (though there might be one or two in other departments, most of the time you're definitely catching the right person).
The only real issue is that during one of the homicide cases, you're punished for doing the "right" thing and avoiding arresting the suspect who is clearly not guilty and pushing to arrest the more obvious suspect, but that's actually telegraphed by your boss telling you which suspect he wants you to arrest, and kind of underlines the narrative that your department is corrupt, which in turn feeds into the overall story. So it makes sense in context, even if it feels like you're being punished for being the best possible detective (but evoking that resentment is exactly what the game wants, because now you feel like Cole feels).
After the Detective section the whole game goes downhill for me in general. You're not even really trying to solve cases anymore. ---
The only fool bigger than the person who knows it all is the person who argues with him. Those who seek justice are at the greatest risk of losing sight of it.
