At what point does your "doing it better" become "turning it into something it wasn't in the first place," though?
If I were to rewrite
X-Men as a paramilitary organization of genetically engineered humans trying to overthrow the government, how would it be
X-Men apart from my saying, "Hey, this is
X-Men." Similarly, how is this all-male, combat-centered
Trek you favor anything like what actually
is Star Trek?
