Picking out all the continuity issues in season one of TOS makes a fun drinking game. Balance of Terror also had the crews of both ships whispering like they were worried they could hear each other. lol
Some of the continuity changes, especially to the characters, feel like improvements to me. Chapel and T'Pring are far more interesting in SNW. They don't just feel like walking tropes as they usually did in TOS.
Speaking of design, I like what they did with the sound in DIS and SNW. They hail someone and it starts with the TOS sound and ends with the TNG sound. They have lots of sounds blended from the different eras and it works surprisingly well.
I agree about reference to our time, but the Lorca's Musk line works because he's from the mirror universe. I'm not sure that's what the writers intended, but I'll take it.
The Picard issue feels like most of what I hear online about it. I suspect in a few years the consensus on season 3 of Picard will have changed.
Yeah, I noticed before I watched and then told my fellow trekkie friends I thought it would be time travel. My reasoning was the only episode of any Trek I could remember that contained the words "yesterday" or "tomorrow" and didn't involve time travel was "Return to Tomorrow." Called it.
Btw, it was a good episode of The Orville. :)
