Pretty much all of Kurtzman Trek goes up for pre-order within a week of the season/series finale. Stuff like this is all planned way in advance.
Spoilers Section 31 General Discussion Thread

These guys are awful. Lasted 5 minutes.
My first ever UHD pre-order! Mind you, I rarely buy blurays these days.
It's cause we all know Matalas was given free reign in Season 3 and Lower Decks is McMahan's baby.
I don't think the people behind Section 31 will be poached by Feige.
His only writing credits for NuTrek so far, are 6 episodes of Discovery, 1 Episode of SNW S1, 1 episode of Picard S1 and 1 short trek. And all of those are as co-writer, no solo credits.
As for creative involvement outside of writing, I've got no clue. He was co-showrunner on Discovery for Seasons 3,4 and 5, and the only showrunner for half of Season 2.
Matalas was also showrunner for half of Season 2. It was his idea to do a time travel story to LA, he also co-wrote the first two episodes.

And then he got a full season to be showrunner with an almost universally liked season that saw him headhunted by the biggest media studio on the planet.
The RLM guys are right again, Kurtzman Trek needs to go away. Whether it is truly his or the higher uppers directing him. It's bad. They are also right to question the existence or practicality of Star Trek TV shows in the current world, where almost two generations have been brought up with no hope and no optimism for the future.
When you have Kurtzman pitch the movie and saying "The Federation couldn't exist without a space genocide orgnisation doing genocide and Roddenberry was naive" (paraphasing) it tells me his shows are not the Star Trek that should exist.

No they're not.
Because without Kurtzman we wouldn't have had 3 great Star Trek series.
We’ll see how well Vision does. Then we can pass judgment. Hopefully it won’t be the tire fire that was Picard season 3.
I’ll gladly take Sec31 and Picard if it means more shows like SNW, LDS and Prodigy as well.
Hardly. It was the same slop as the first two seasons, but with more familiar faces. People were blinded by nostalgia.
Little does Captain Pike know, that all his and the efforts of his officers mean nothing because Section 31 will just genocide their enemies.
If nostalgia is finally having a crew that acts like and works like adults to solve a problem instead of quipping or crying, then yes.
All the shows have had people solving problems as adults.
So it turns out that Balenciaga did some of the dresses worn in the movie, at the insistence of Yeoh?
Yeah, no more vanity projects for Star Trek, please.

My favourite part of Discovery was them in an asteroid field and they spent the whole time making jokes, qupping and not shutting the fuck up even when that science guy died horribly.
I loved it. Very cool.
People have been saying that since DS9 introduced them.
Not enough money for Star Trek SNW, Star Trek Legacy or more Lower Decks - we need to keep Michelle Yeoh happy!
As well as it being a true follow up to TNG, as opposed to Stewart's keen instinct that PIC shouldn't be a sequel to TNG.
PIC Season 3 was way better than the first 2 seasons, IMO.
Deep Space 9 made it clear that they were a tiny, rogue and abhorrent organisation that not even Captain Sisko had heard of. They were antagonists. Now they're the space CIA but that isn't surprising when you consider Kurtzman wrote the Transformer movies which were full on US imperialist propaganda.
