Pike even asked that, and it went totally unanswered.
Was it Riker or Worf in TNG's Lower Decks episode telling Sito that she should let the targeting lock 'float' until just before she fired? Sounds like once the ship locked on phasers, they were aimed at a set trajectory. Maybe Uhura locked it, fired, and before she could react, the enemy ship had maneuvered into the beam.
Now my question is: why didn't the Enterprise even attempt to beam off any survivors from the enemy ship before it crashed? Starfleet is usually willing to rescue their enemies once they are rendered defenseless. Answer: because then they would have told Pile about what the kid was going to do, and then we'd have no story.
I thought she answered that the machine was designed only to work with a human neural network, and that's how their ancestors designed it; and they didn't know why that was, nor did they have a functional alternative...?
True, but she never explained why the machine was necessary to begin with.
The Majalans want their super healing powers that can cure delta radiation and everything else and aren't willing to let that go and evacuate the planet over the wellbeing of 1 kid. Obviously no one told them about Khan's blood.
She also said earlier that the surface of the planet was mostly molten lava and the device kept their city/cities floating above it and without it, they would all fall into said lava.
Hmm. You'd think after all these generations they could have 'scienced' up another solution.
Considering even the dad's reluctance to come clean, I think they all have religious hangups instilled since birth that hamper progress.
There's a moment where it seemed like maybe a scene was cut for time where Number One says to Spock "Are you telling me that I have no way to contact the captain when I need to?" I thought for a second we were going to get an example of why she's considered terrifying by the crew. Spock's expression was intensely apprehensive. Like, "oh shit." I would have liked to see everyone suddenly scrambling to find a way.
When Pike opens his communicator and says "Now, number one," they'd obviously figured it out but the implication was that she'd been waiting and he'd just regained consciousness so...
Anyway, a little more character business on the bridge of people jumping however high Una told them too would have been satisfying.

It maybe THE dealbreaker for him
Agreed on the 26-ep business. 10 episodes is seriously problematic. We need at least 15.
15 would be my ideal sweet spot.
Probably objections from the actors, since 26 episodes is a grueling schedule.

They don't seem to truly understand their science. The little boy does, but that's because he's about to become the understander for all of them. The computer system seems to need that neural input, they don't know why. It powers everything, they don't know how, and it wants a humanoid child's neural network to do it with, they seem too afraid to find out what happens otherwise. It's all indicative of a system that wants the benefit of the sausage, without having to know the details of how the sausage is made.
Total of 4 to 7 including the Universe reboot, depending on your inclusiveness (out of 11-17 total women).

My query would only include TOS Kirk, not the Kelvin-Kirk, whose BC totally doesn't count.
Steve Shives did a video on Kirk being a promiscuous horndog and whether or not the reputation is earned. I'd link to it but I know some here don't like him and, well, many of his videos are longer than an A&E adaptation of Wuthering Heights.
A lot of the TOS titles were lifted from Shakespeare... this is not a criticism. I loved them too.
