Before I even read the article, I'm going to confess that I didn't even finish season 1 of Discovery because - is the "insufferable" main character you're referring to the "Oh btw I'm Spock's sister (but not really)" lady, because LMAOOO do I agree with you there!!! One day I'll go back and watch Discovery (and Picard).
Article thoughts:
The bigger-ship "problem" is definitely budget. The misogyny was unfortunately just a thing of its time. I totally agree with the article that the Gorn were introduced too early - and I think we all know we all agree that the SNW Gorn are too Sigourney Weaver "Alien". Not that I expected to see some poor schmuck in a cheap dinosaur party suit, but still...! And obviously we're not going to see a yeoman with a clipboard... hahaa.
Totally agree that the changes work without pushing fans away - although if a fan felt pushed away by the whole Gorn thing, I honestly wouldn't blame them too much.
