All I'm saying is that 2300 is still the
official future of the Twilight 2000 universe, whereas TNE is
not. I realize that TNE
seems like a better fit for Twlight 2000, but canon is firm about 2300 being linked to the Twilight 2000 setting and TNE being linked to the Traveller setting, rather than vice-versa.
I think it's fair to say that TNE is a lot
like T2K in space, but saying that it
is T2K in space breaks with the reality and potentially confuses Traveller newcomers by distorting facts. I know that people misrepresenting TNE as a continuation of (or link to) Twilight 2000 confused the heck out of me at one time
