Is it hot in here or is it just the peppers?

Like the title says. My plant has some burnt leaves, not sure due to the sun or too much nutrition. Either way, the four of five biggest leaves of this plant are like this. I recon they still provide the plant with energy so I should leave them on? Or should I remove them? What are your thoughts.
I would remove them so the plant puts the energy into developing healthy leaves that are more efficient at photosynthesis.
That makes sense, thank you.
Keep in mind that the plants store a good amount of nutrients, and even if they lose every single leaf, so long as the roots are healthy it will grow back. Pruning damaged leaves is fine. Not only will they grow back healthier, it can help get light down to the younger leaves to encourage them to grow faster.
Thank you, I've pruned the damaged leaves.
