Kinda circles around to the differences between now and 1966. The audiences understands so much more about computers and security surrounding them now.
That doesn't even take into account why you would need holographic comms connected to your sensitive systems? Now we have to think of all the poor Starfleet officers who will no longer have access to holographic mirrors when they get ready. Won't someone think of grooming?!
It does?
So that high ranking personnel can communicate in a very direct way on any part of the ship immediately? I really don't know. Pike's line implies it's buried right in a lot of the ship. That doesn't seem like a good idea. The Prometheus having shipwide holography at all was considered something remarkable in 2375.
Based on many of your previous conclusions and displays of discordant views, I wouldn't hold my breath if I were you.
The Discovery Writers don't seem to reading from the same playbook as you would likie.
Communicator? I can't fathom a reason you would need to have holographic projectors all over the ship.
Maybe the bandwidth of holography is so large that not only can it not be compressed, it can't be fully monitored or hacked by anything other than powerful AI?
Saru was surprised by petabytes of transmission being taken up by ordinary comms traffic, but that level of info being possible means something uses that, holo-comms could be it.
I'm not sure I'm all that alone in those views. The big criticism the show has faced so far in both seasons is that the writing is lackluster.
Go steal some people from HBO.
It means in the Disco future, everyone needs to put on pants before making a call!
These days I think STARZ would be a better choice than HBO.
What kind of future is it if we can't be naked all the time? that's what Gene wanted after all.
Folks would stop calling me a second time, for sure.
I can imagine Harry Mudd doing this on purpose as well.
(though if it's Stella calling he might stand behind a piece of furniture)
That's what I thought when I watched that the second time. Both times detecting the fake holograms were Vulcans.
Well they do stand still and emote very little, maybe that helps keep the rendering down.
Gene envisioned a world where you'd have no need for pockets to hold spare change or posessions. Maybe the 1st season tng uniforms are supposed to be body paint.
Anyone who designs or manufactures skirts beat him to that a long time before.
