[QUOTE="Ryujin, post: 7271057, member: 27897"] That's the thing about canon being declared to no longer be canon. At one point the FASA stuff was considered to be canon. The real reason for the D7 being used was someone stole the original Warbird model. The behind the scenes explanation was Klingon-Romulan alliance, which eventually made it into the FASA RPG docs. Again that was a feeling and empathic contact, rather than two people in a virtual room, having a conversation. The war resulted in a banning of genetic manipulation. It also resulted in a general attitude that the human body is good enough. Both of the cases you mention were for prosthetic purposes, not for enhancement. In LaForge's case it was of additional benefit, but they continually referenced how he wanted to see like everyone else. In Picard's case it killed him for a minute. Have you forgotten that the Big Bad was the Borg? Which movies; the originals? Generally it was 'combat' lighting. If you're talking about the Kelvin timeline I'll just say that I hate lens flares. To save one ship. The war was a given at that point. You're trying to break my point down into individual tidbits and argue them like that. It's the sum total that makes me dislike Discovery. As I've mentioned one or two things don't make me walk away. Throw out everything and you've lost me. [/QUOTE]
