This video sums a lot of stuff up fairly well.

    History will not catch up to Star Trek because Star Trek is a work of fiction and some of it relies on violating basic laws of physics.

    This is like someone in the 1930s asking what should happen when history catches up with the H.G. Wells-scripted film Things to Come.

    The answer is: Nothing, and part of that reason is that we don’t shoot people into space with a big cannon.

        I’m afraid no amount of attitude will make a lot of Star Trek technology make sense.

        Also, no amount of attitude will make Vulcans exist.

          So, with zero attitude, I now formally introduce articles of federation of The Vulcan Empire, with myself as Grand Magis.

          Our first order of business, introducing the stylish new trend of elvish-ear lengthening surgery, and the development of food replicators.

      That is the conclusion of this video. I agree whole-heartedly and that’s why I posted it.
