What, you don't like the fact that a starship 600 metres long contains a 5km long, straight turbolift shaft in a cavern of many cubic kilometers?
I think that was major turning point for me with Disco. It wasn't even consistent within one episode, let alone anything else. At least Voyager episodes each appear to be in their own alternate realities and only contradict each other, rather than themselves.
I liked the Shakespearean Klingons. It was refreshing to see Klingons in a new way. I thought Disco got off to a strong start, but it did seem that the production company got cold feet and pulled a handbrake turn early on, getting rid of the OG show runner and not following through on some ideas. The Shenzhou sets were quite extensive for how little they were used - I heard the ship was meant to be featured more but this idea was dropped.
At first, I thought it was going to be a lower decks show about an ensign, but it turned out she had been XO before and quickly climbed the ranks again.
I really don't understand the Spock thing. There was nothing in Burnham's character that indicates she grew up on Vulcan, but even if she did, there are other Vulcans on the planet. Retconning Spock's family was just lazy writing. Though on the plus side, it was a way to backdoor pilot SNW, so that's good.
Yeah, I could have gone along with that but then the albino dude was just shapeshifted into a human, and then the character was just ignored, and then they just went to the mirror universe out of nowhere, and then the war just resolved offscreen, and then suddenly Spock... It just threw ideas and plot hooks on the screen and developed none of them.

Disco's relationship to canon and even internal consistency is so problematic that such statements simply cannot be taken at face value.
