Did someone break or forget to close Discovery's shuttlebay door?

I've been avoiding the newer threads because I still have to see this weeks episode of Disco, but I have noticed something peculiar about the U.S.S. Discovery this season.

In almost every episode this season, Discovery is flying/operating/getting shanked with its shuttlebay wiiiiiide open.

Did the doors get jammed open, but no one can fix them because the chief engineer is working on the technobabble?
Is it because of Klingons?
Section 31?
New door closing mechanism doesn't arrive until next Tuesday?
Red Angel?

Forget the Red Angel. I think the Red Angel is just a macguffin. The seemingly perma-open shuttlebay is clearly the biggest mystery of Season 2.

Or maybe the CG artists made a boo boo.

Thoughts?

On a side note, I have also noticed a pattern in Disco Season 1 and 2. The Jonathan Frakes directed episodes are well crafted storytelling and brilliantly executed.

 

It's a prequel. Shuttlebay doors were invented later, it's canon.

 

The door may have been screwed up when they pulled that massive piece of rock into the bay.

Tilly (or Stamets?) told Pike that the bay was going to need some work done to repair it afterward.

And the ship hasn't been back to a dry dock since then.

 

In season 3 they get a new door.

 

Yeah, it was explicitly broken in the first episode. We see it break, and then we get the line (from Tilly):

The ship hasn't gone in for repairs since.

 

I blame HAL.

 

Honestly, why pressurize someplace that size which really just the ship's garage.

 

The new door will be here on Tuesday.

 

They’ll even add it to the opening credits. You thought the opening sequence was beautiful already, pffffft.

 

I like to think they've lost the dongle with the button on it to bring it down. Maybe they left it in the mirror universe, or in that cave under Kronos.

 

Ha! Trekyards mention this a lot that it has become a gag.
Does seem not very safe. if they lose power then everyone there is blown into space.

 

And Frakes has praised the Disco PTB for letting him direct them however he wants.

 

Discovery has the technology that allows a forcefield to constantly run and keep in atmosphere?

Also, forget that Kirk (Shatner timeline, set 10 years later and claimed to be in the same universe (but we bought that bridge from 'em too)), they de-/re-pressurized their hangar deck all the time...

So there are some possible reasons:

• What Tim Thomason said but if the forcefield is a secondary or emergency control system...
  
• DSC's technology has some bugs that are yet to be revealed
  • Meaning, along with the drive that lets the ship do a ballet dancing, furniture flinging, and vomit-incuding spin before disappearing, here's another bit'o'tech that will either be
    • completely ignored
    • will make for one heck of a series finale as problem after problem reveals what a poorly designed bucket this Disco thing is
• Already mentioned, a later episode will show the inefficiency or major oversight to the implementation of the field and prove to the audience that delayed gratification means solid answers were developed
  • even if that means an 11th hour rewrite
• Q has been playing big tricks during both these seasons
• Troi wakes up during the upcoming Picard show that's siphoning funds from DSC and reveals it was all one big nasty dream

Or:

• They're not putting any effort into scripting that meshes their era into the rest of Trek lore with any authenticity but will say "Yeah this is in the same universe and by the way our DNA scanning technology is far worse than what they had in the 21st century despite our better sensors" and laugh at those who shallow it

Just how are audiences sleeping at night?!

And as a director, Jonathan Frakes can do magic... has he ever tried script/arc writing?

 

I think the real reason is that they’re just too lazy to make another cgi model of Discivery with it closed.

 

Especially since Discovery's shuttlebay is so large. Much bigger than the one on the Enterprise. So it would be easier to have a forcefield than a massive door.

Probably saves on the effects as well (most of the DSC shuttlebay is CGI; only the floor and the inner wall are physical sets, IIRC).

 

I think the bigger mystery is how come there's all that empty space when they show the roller coaster turbo lifts in action?

 

They probably just do that 'cause it looks cool. It's not in any way realistic, but who cares? It's not like the plot rides on it.

 

You know how there's always that one family in your neighborhood that leaves their garage door open all day and night? Discovery is that family.
