Evidence of SNW being a possible alternate timeline from TOS
How would those differ from TOS? We don't know Spock's full relationship history. La'An is a new character. And we've no information on Sam Kirk's life beyond what Jim tells us in two episodes.
And one sorta/kinda though not really reference at the end of one movie.
I think there is almost a game now of "focus on the differences" in Star Trek, rather than work with it.
TOS contradicted itself constantly, so SNW is just continuing the tradition.
I'm not seeing the issue here. He can still have cared very deeply for Rukiya's mother while still having been married to three other women. That's just life.
Hush you! We all know it was more difficult to keep things straight when there were only eighty episodes than it is now there's almost a thousand.
The sad part is, that's actually what some people have attempted to seriously argue in these discussions.
Heck, just in the two TOS pilot episodes the history of space travel was retconned. Warp drive was a recent invention (called time warp drive) in "The Cage" and in "WNMHGB" it's been around longer and early Earth ships were probing out to the galactic rim 200 years ago.

Beat me to it.
IIRC Prime was also a pre-existing term in various fictions, usually meaning the original reality.
If that were the case, Pelia would be gone already.
That isn't why he was killed off, It was for the drama, not to get him out of the way.

Uh, yes, I know this. Where did I say that CBSAA coined the term? I said that CBSAA used the term to refer to DSC as not taking place in the KT.
Pelia is going to be gone, one way or another, to make way for Scotty to become chief engineer. It has nothing to do with drama; it has to do with artificially making way for another character to take their place.
It's fiction. Everything is artificial.

I am aware.
To me a reboot would signal no imagination and laziness. Star Trek has the biggest sandbox of any IP for a writer to play with eg: the future, exploring the galaxy, numerous planets and cultures. You're telling me the best you can do is recycle the same old sh@t? Might as well rename it Kirks Travels if that's as far as the creative's imagination reaches.

That might be true but at the end of the day, a series has to make money. To the masses, Star Trek is the Enterprise, Kirk, Spock and McCoy. The further you get away from that, the masses aren’t going to be interested. There has to be a balance between appeasing old fans and bringing in new fans.
She's going to run off to work on the transwarp project, with Scotty's dislike of her explaining his distaste for transwarp 20 years later and his eagerness to sabotage it.
A madman in a blue box. Madwoman. Madperson? *insert Darksiders 3 horseman joke*
Nope, not in Hemmer's case.
