    At least Star Trek stayed consistent with its prequel stuff.

    Have you seen Klingons?

      Like when Kirk et al left the galaxy but it’s going to take Voyager decades to get back from another quadrant.

      We could go on about just Voyager honestly.

      Stardates.

      The Warp Speed Limit appears to have just been dropped.

      Pretty sure Kirk also broke warp 10 before and no one turned in to a lizard.

      Star Trek has plenty of inconsistency too, these are just some examples.

      It sounds more like you’re unhappy someone is criticizing a thing you like. We like it too. Sometimes we do it so someone who is writing can recognize a problem and improve. Sometimes we do it because it’s fun. Like Weird Al parodying a song you like.

      First off, they were a visual redesign. That’s it. It didn’t fuck with established lore or canon.

      Second, if you want to talk about Klingons being inconsistent then you need to start with TOS, not the prequels. Klingons changed so drastically between TOS and the movies that Enterprise had to come up with an explanation for it.
