Why is the Voyager Starship so badly designed?

[Distorted Humor]

I guess since I have seen enough "it seemed like a good idea at the time" engineering choices, it does not shock me, while it shocks you. (Shrugs)

blame the writers not the ship

Would you rather they just ran into "Cowboy Planet" or "Roman Planet" or "50s America Planet" like TOS did?

Yet all those stories were far more compelling than anything Voyager gave us.

YMMV indeed, then...
