If we really HAD to reconcile it, I'm sure we could say something like, "he got one opportunity to go back and see folks, explaining that he would never be able to do so again (and why). He chose the timing of Riker's and Troi's wedding to do so." This would also be consistent with Dr. Crusher's...

This is the way.

I'm thinking it was the latter. I'm certainly not aware of any canon suggesting Kirk was on the Enterprise prior to being captain, and had thought that it was established in The Menagerie that he didn't really know Pike.

I will certainly concede that the direction of those movies made it look like it took no time at all to travel between distant star systems....

Just to be clear, I think it's pretty much stated straight out that the attack on the Kelvin makes Kirk's mom have an early birth. I'm not disputing that (with the caveat that I allowed some "possibility" to the contrary). My only real suggestion is that I don't think it's likely, given the...

"Word of God" is that the Luna-class Titan definitely existed, even if you don't want to accept Lower Decks as canon, so we can just stop that speculation about no-Luna-Titan right now.

I don't think you understood his line of logic (it's possible that *I'm* the one misunderstanding, but bear with me). In the Kelvin timeline, Kirk was born JUST after the point of divergence. If we assume that everything prior to that divergence point was the same, then we have to assume that...

Frankly, I assume it was Section 31's idea to start with....

Perhaps not only that, but mechanisms to quietly move those props around so that they happen to coincide with places for the hologram to sit without their having to worry about it. And at least one Trek source suggests that the holodeck has a series of floor-based force fields that can move...

She was clearly SITTING on the edge of the shuttle bay (someone sitting on the floor looks rather different). It wasn't just an "adjustment," of the kind that, yes, Al used to do all the time to account for the realities of filming without using the green screen for every little thing. I mean...

I can't recall a "chair," per se. I complained about sitting on the scenery (which should be holographic to the person in the "present"). For what it's worth, two times stand out to me. 1. In the space shuttle episode, during Ben's time in the open cargo bay, Addison sits on top of the...

Why are we talking about alcohol free beer? I thought "light" beer was supposed to be (essentially) diet beer. Same alcohol content, but fewer calories. I'm not a drinker, so I could be mistaken.

Maybe an RiD Ultra Magnus that didn't look like he was constantly on stilts?

I'm happy to accept that this version of QL tech may be based on Sam's, but nonetheless operates somewhat differently from Sam's, but I still have trouble with the fact that the hologram is often seen deliberately sitting on the scenery in Ben's time period. It's one thing to cheat on occasion...

Why do I feel like I remember that Picard introduced Jack to Beverly?

There WAS a desire to avoid using "Prime," but I expect that this was long-gone by the time of the Lio Convoy exclusive (very probably in part because of that debacle)
