Spoilers Starship Design in Star Trek: Picard

The Titan in storyboards (and on one of the cutaways on a console) has a bridge window. I wonder if removing it was a late design decision.

I kinda miss the Bridge window. I've gotten so used to them over the years that so see a ship without one, seems strange. Plus, I've kinda gone with the whole reasoning that the only reason you would bother to put the bridge on the very top of your ship would be because you wanted a window...

Sorry, windows are not real Trek certified.
 
I never minded the windows, tbh. Like many of said, sometimes it's better to see things with the naked eye. And if people are concerned about security issues with the enemy being able to see inside the bridge... I mean, the Enterprise D did have a giant window looking down at its tactical and command stations.
 
This was the first image of the Titan ever posted. A lot of people assumed after season 2 started that it was the Stargazer because Terry tweeted it before Season 2 aired.

Bill Krause made a scale chart based on available data. this isn't canon, just based off what is publicly known

Why people are assuming that the 23th century titan would be that small? Certainly that scaling is based on original Enterprise's 300ish metres, but that has now been retconned to 450ish metres, right? So certainly ships with similar parts from the same era could be assumed to be similarly retconned?

No one from production has said it has been scaled up. Bill Krause designed the Shangri-La, so he's using his own scale in that image. He said in a previous tweet that he has no idea if they changed the size or not.

Bill Krause said that image was made with all the information he currently had available to him. It's not just his own head canon.
