Ever notice how closed worlds in fiction tend to also be moving worlds? Spaceships, ships (treasure), train (snowpiercer)... the things you can do onboard are limited and away missions are very controlled but it’s still varied because you’re moving.

Deep Space 9 feels like an exception till you note that they put a heavily trafficked wormhole next to the space station so the world is moving past them even if they’re not. We’re in a non-moving closed world. That’s why it sucks.

Haven’t talked with another human besides my wife in person for months, not counting transactional interactions with concierge, checkout people etc. Single extroverts must be going insane. I bet many went protesting partly for social reasons.
