It’s just a faster route to get through a hyperspace dead zone it’s a retcon but at least a somewhat logical one if you ignore the sapient hyperspeed space whales.
Yeah, and I’m fine with that. I don’t need a “plausible” explanation for everything. Same with Star Trek. In Voyager, Tom Paris goes faster than warp 10, which is infinitely fast. And he doesn’t travel infinitely far. Or all that far at all. How is that possible? The writers said so. Why did he turn into a salamander afterward? Because that’s what happens when you go faster than warp 10. Whatever, as long as I’m enjoying it.
Edit: also, as far as I know, the TV show with the most people with advanced degrees who have worked on it is Futurama and they never let science get in the way of a good joke.
Yeah, but if you’re on a ship that can do the Kessel Run in less than 12 parsecs…

You also have to ignore the whole ‘falcons exist a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away’ thing.
Me, I go with ‘George didn’t know what a parsec was. The ship goes super fast.’ I mean he’s not a scientist.
He didn’t, he admits it.

Warp 10 is infinitely fast, then how come the upgraded Enterprise D can go warp 13!?!?!

Don’t they keep redefining exactly how fast warp 10 is? I seem to recall that it keeps getting faster over the years
