Flawed logic, though. Lower Decks isn’t saying that the Discovery Klingons only exist in a different universe, but that there is a different continuity wherein that variety of Klingons still existed at that time. There was another Klingon ship that just turned into a seafaring ship, presumably for another universe where the Klingons never discovered space travel.
The Cerritos ends up turning into a variety of different ships which obviously still exist in the normal canon, so there’s no continuity exclusivity with all these outcomes.
honestly i wish they’d retcon out the first season rather than retcon out the klingons being bald. the kinglons were the best part about the first couple of discovery seasons, Burnham being insubordinate should have ended their career.
They are saying that lower decks implies that the Klingons from discovery are from another timeline. Ergo, discovery as a whole was.
