PU Spock should not be written I the SNW way. Wondering how the writers will try to transition him to TOS Spock by 5.06.
Well, he had to transition from Cage Spock to TOS Spock so something changed. The Early Voyages comics addressed it too so it's not a strange concept.
Same way TOS Spock became Undiscovered Country Spock?
He has to transition into Early TOS Spock before we hit "classic" Spock. The occasionally snarky guy with sly grins who recommends the death penalty.

So he has to die again?
I love how people forget character development is a thing in all media.He has to transition into Early TOS Spock before we hit "classic" Spock. The occasionally snarky guy with sly grins who recommends the death penalty.
Vulcans aren’t role models
A trope is a trope. Writers or producers cannot resist a good trope. Or a bad trope.
Therefore if there is a Vulcan main character, at some point there needs to be a pony Farr episode, a loss of emotional control episode (both could be the same episode), a time travel episode, and so forth

I'm having wicked dreams of leaving Seleya
Hear Andoria, I swear it's calling me
Yeah, it's not my best work.
Vulcan brony furries... the plot twist we never knew we neededPony Farr?
Exactly. The whole point of the Spock-Kirk-McCoy dynamic is that both Spock and McCoy represent extremes -- logic versus emotion -- with Kirk as the balance inbetween.
Indeed, the whole point of the first movie (supervised by Roddenberry himself) was about Spock learning to accept and value his human emotions -- while rejecting the Vulcan ideal of Kolinahr.
The Vulcans are extremists. They were never meant to be role models.
Meanwhile, at the risk of getting all English Lit-ish, Faulkner famously opined that the best and most powerful stories are about the human heart in conflict with itself.
Presumably that applies to Vulcan hearts as well. . . .
He still had issues with emotional control, you could see his irritation with Neelix.
Kolinahr wouldn’t be necessary if everyday Vulcans had control of their emotions at all times. Even those who go through it still have emotional moments.
I doubt passing the Kolinahr ritual successfully, will allow any Vulcan to feel or react to any emotions.
