    I thought I was rightfully complaining about the Jefferies Tubes on STO too big if you aren’t forced to crawl. Then I rewatched “The Way of the Warrior” and during the drills they explicitly say they are in the Jefferies Tubes and you can see people standing upright. So I guess there are starships that you can stand inside.

    Unrelated: why does a Cardassian station have crawlways we are calling Jefferies Tubes? That seem to be a Federation thing.

    EDIT: I guess calling the crawlways on Deep Space Nine Jefferies Tubes could simply be a language thing due to universal translator.

      Iirc Voyager commented on why theirs were that smol (I don’t remember it being a good reason, but I like when screenplay comments on or ads lore to unexplained but seemingly stupid or illogical things … aka patching plot holes - it doesn’t take much atc all, but it make the story or world so much earlier up comprehend for me, even allowing for a more immersive experience).
