Is it just me or does TNG do a good job avoiding this trope, generally? I really love in the momentum escape from that asteroid field trap how Picard takes Geordis word that his power use is essential and doesn’t make demands

Divert all power to my replicator, I need a really strong coffee.
Divert all ships power to my bitcoin mining rig
