Kinda glad they didn’t run with it. Not everything needs to connect back. Like after Wrath of Khan, having Ceti Alpha V become a desert hive of scum and villainy run by the Orion Syndicate, as well as the place where Soong first comes up with the positronic brain, and so on.
That backwards connection trope is rather overdone and annoying. I don’t need extensive backstory for everything. Leaving a little mystery is wonderful.
Trill being tribbles is just really funny to me.

Midichlorians are the powerhouse of the cell.
No no no, midichlorians are currency spent for force use. You mean Mesopotamians.
Exactly what I was referring to
Adding new mystery would be nice. The show’s about exploration, at least on its surface.
Soong first comes up with the positronic brain
Oh, and here I thought it was where he genetically engineered midichlorians. TIL!
Also, everything doesn’t have to be taken literally.
When someone in 21st century media calls someone else a ‘sly fox’ or a ‘work horse’ we know they are speaking metaphorically.
Or they do a prequel and it’s all about destiny
