I'd be down with Pine as any version of Kirk - would be fun as Kirk 2.0 if they age Kirk's body back to when he was younger, using the transporter tech from "rascals"
But in-universe makes a lot more sense. Why in God's name would Starfleet recovering the body of a captain from his final resting place? It's not as if there's something amazingly top secret about his remains, that could be used by science.
The Genesis Device (apparently a second version of it according to the screen), something capable of destroying entire worlds and civilizations in seconds and nearly causing a gigantic interstellar incident between the Federation and the Klingons.....
Yeah, it makes sense that Starfleet would secretly keep working on that weapon at a highly classified location under extreme lockdown measures. You know, as a last resorts against some new unknown threat.
I don't think it was all fanwank, they were just high in the writer's room like "okay guys so what would be in section 31's top secret vault?" and picked things from the trek universe accordingly. Kirk's body was the only one that seemed kind of intentional. Loved that ferocious attack tribble, I would like one as a pet.
That line is a dig at the only proper season finale.
Prime directive. Same as recovering the enterprise D.
when the locals of veridian IV reach their neighbouring planet they may well discover the body.
It wasn't Starfleet, but rather Section 31. So of course they're not going to be bothered about sentiments surrounding one's final resting place.
I think (unfortunately) Section 31 is canonically part of Starfleet now. They had their facility on Daystrom Station, and Worf says they are part of Starfleet Intelligence.
I don't understand why anyone thinks there's anything coming out of this. If it were there as a story seed, it would be much more highlighted. Do people really think that in Star Trek: Legacy or whatever they'll have Riker say, "Could it be Captain Kirk? I walked by, but didn't verbally acknowledge, that a panel said his body was inside." It's fun to speculate, but I hope no one's actually keeping their hopes up, or getting mad about how this stupid easter egg has ruined Star Trek forever.
It was already implied in "Inquisition". When Bashir asked Sloan if he was part of Internal Affairs, he basically told Julian that Section 31 was another part of Starfleet Intelligence.
That's been the since since Into Darkness and Discovery's second season.
Depending on how much you trust in Sloan's words, it may have been the case since DS9.
So Into Darkness and Discovery might not have changed the status quo about Section 31.
I was more concerned about a different quote from that podcast about Kirk's body turning up on Daystrom Station:
"...is it a tip of the hat to The Return, which is a wonderful book I recommend to all of you? Maybe...."
Learning that Terry Matalas thinks The Return was a wonderful book makes me think he probably also likes ketchup on his hot dogs.

so he likes something that most people like also?
YMMV but unlike the other Shatner books, i actually liked his novel. It was really creative and interesting in what it did with the Borg. And the horror aspects were fantastic. Way creepier than the FC/Voyager Borg.I was more concerned about a different quote from that podcast about Kirk's body turning up on Daystrom Station:

And it was really great to see Kirk in a 24th century setting.

Picard said it in Generations five years before the DS9 finale.
Paul Wesley.Would be either Paul Wesley or Chris Pine though?
Chris Pine is too expensive unless it's for a "Movie"; even then, it would have to be for the right movie at the right price.
The only two condiments required on hot dogs are Ketchup and Relish, mustard is completely optional. And The Return was a fun read.
pretty sure the majority like that.
