You could plop John Wayne into either universe and he'd be perfectly at home. "that's a mighty weird-looking horse," he'd say often.

Yeah, he'd try to put a saddle on Chewbacca, or try to teach Spock how to castrate a pig. But he'd function pretty well.

Now imagine plopping a famous Renaissance actor into our actual present day. Their anxiety attack would create shockwaves.

That renaissance actor would be alternately horrified, disgusted, amazed, and baffled. In equal measures, about almost everything.

That renaissance actor would be experiencing a bowel-looseningly severe case of future shock.

John Wayne, however, in the age of Picard or in a galaxy far away: he wouldn't have any reason to curl up in a fetal position and cry.

A rule of thumb: if John Wayne could function normally in your universe, you did not write science fiction.
