Agreed. If they hadn't cleaned the joint up after thirteen years, then the place should still be a dump after only a couple.
It will be the final proof of DSC's place in the Prime (or other) universe!!!!1!!
I'm still scratching my head over that one. True, the Talosians had never seen a human before. But couldn't they just scan the Columbia's computer banks? Or even read Vina's mind? (The Talosians are such powerful telepaths that I'm sure they wouldn't need the target to be conscious when they read someone's mind...)
And besides, Talosians and humans aren't all that different, at least externally. They both have a head, two arms, two legs. Unless the Talosians are so far gone that they wouldn't know how to repair one of their OWN bodies, they should have been able to do a far better job on Vina.

The death penalty part was in "The Menagerie" anyway.
Star Trek Humans might not like or have the death penalty on Earth but the rest of the Federation are not humans and have different cultural values. In universe the aliens are not humans with pointy ears, or humans with antennae and blue skin etc
I like the idea of other Federation worlds having values humans find alien because they are alien. (And I am anti death penalty in the real world).

"Benedict Cumberbatch isn't Khan""Are you going to visit any planets this season?
Alex Kurtzman: You will see a few planets this season, yes.
Are you visiting planets we’ve seen before?
Alex Kurtzman: Talos. We’re going to Talos."
Not sure how one can interpret that in any other way???
I wish people would stop brining this up.
It was their choice to torpedo their credibility, and they deserve all the shit they get for it.
But a Mexican born man with Spanish parents is??? Khan was whitewashed from the beginning.
And then made darker in TOS via makeup IIRC.
How does trying to keep a plot point a secret equal "torpedoing their credibility"? They don't owe us a point by point breakdown of the script/novel/comic/whatever prior to the product's release. They are allowed misdirection and out right lies to keep things under wraps. Fans need to stop being pouty babies demanding candy.
Ultimately Khan was manufactured. He's an augment, and there's no telling what his genetic mix might have been, regardless of his name.
Replying to myself as I must disagree vociferously with myself publicly and embarrassingly to point out that Faran Tahir should have been Khan. It would have been awesome to have Khan and Robau played by the same person.
