The Parliament just feels like a more beautiful version of the Nebula - it is rather elegant while keeping that Galaxy-class kitbash feel, combined with a bit of Miranda in the square edges of the saucer and a smidge of Sovereign in the nacelles. Nebula just looks derpy by comparison

True, Nebula and Parliament have a bit different purposes. However, other than nacelles, they actually seem to be about the same size interior-wise (based on some very Memory Beta info).

    Certainly better than the “you really should have quit designing starships while you were ahead” Oberth Class.

    I know “infinite diversity in infinite combinations” is beautiful sentiment, but maybe dial it back when it comes to pick 'n mix starship designs. “It’s a whole new design! We run the nacelles right through the crew quarters, thus eliminating the need for an engineering hull!”
