      the problem with the Star Trek prequel series is that the writing can be summed up as: "Do you know that really cool thing that the characters first encountered in TNG or TOS? Well, actually, they encountered it a hundred years before." that is just terrible writing

      and don't even get me started on the naming of the W5 ship in ENT.

      dammit, now I can't let this go Naming the ship the Entrprise in ENT is bad writing, for a couple different reasons. For starters, there's no good in-universe explanation for giving it that name. Yes, the W5 ships were named after the space shuttles, but -

      there's no good reason to explain why that universe named their first space shuttle the Enterprise. We did it because of PR reasons related to a short-lived tv series, but that universe didn't have the tv series. So there's no reason for that name to be significant.

      BTW, TNG was aware of this issue, which is why the wall of models in the conference room did not include the space shuttle.

      This isn't that big a deal, in their universe you can imagine that the Space Shuttle was named after the WWII carrier

      Any number of things might be different between their timeline and ours (I mean in our world the Enterprise was the prototype Space Shuttle that never went on any missions but in their world maybe it was associated with some great act of heroism)

      Replying to @arthur_affect @82_Streetcar and

      The Space Shuttle Enterprise was originally going to be named after the Constitution, another warship ("Old Ironsides"), before the Star Trek fans weighed in And the Star Trek pandering probably only happened because it is also technically a reference to a famous US navy ship

      So maybe in their world they went with the legendary US carrier rather than Old Ironsides And then maybe in this universe after Challenger exploded they went with the plan to refit Enterprise to go into service to replace it, rather than building Endeavour

          I kinda wish you had read to the end of my tweet chain, and saw the other reason I objected the thing is, you're trying to BS a justification for a decision that was bad on every level there's no way to fix this because, in terms of the quality of writing, it's just bad
