Gohan also doesn't really want to fight. That's the big difference: he actually likes his studies as seen in super and super hero. The only time he ever savors a fight is typically when he gets drunk with power and he turns into a Saiyan instead of a human, which he finally learned to control in super hero.

Goten, chi chi seems to be way more lax with. Because he really is mini Goku in most every way including his desire to fight. And his...stupidity.

I contend that Dragon Ball Online and Xenoverse understood Gohan best and gave him the appropriate future:

In the course of his studies, he writes a groundbreaking book on the science of ki control. It wins him many awards and opens up the concept of ki control to the world in a digestible way, just like how he taught videl to fly. In the games, this is the reason why the Earthling race seems to universally have ki control.

That is actually a brilliant way to close off his character arc.
