Spoilers Star Trek: Strange New Worlds - Season 3 Viewing (Spoilers)

I don't think we know the Stardate for the episode. There can be a significant gap between episodes, with the suspension passing in the background.

It's not a matter of time. In a previous episode, Una reinstates her to the helm in spite of her suspension the moment they encounter a difficult flying situation, and that's the last we hear of it.

We aren't going to see development of the character if the character is suspended, sitting on her hands in her quarters.

On the contrary, the whole issue is that, prior to her Gorn PTSD, her one and only character trait has been "I fly the ship". It's become a joke in itself. The only way we're going to see development for her is by seeing what she is outside of that seat, and her suspension should have an opportunity to explore that.
