Poll Do you consider Discovery to truly be in the Prime Timeline at this point?

Inconsistancy only matters if DSC does it.
This year at least
Everything but TOS is out of sync with TOS when it comes to Klingons.
Not really. Everyone considers holodecks new in TNG, but Disco has them. Okay, the Voyager characters grew up with holodecks, so TNG is the outlier there, I guess. On DS9 everyone treated holographic communication as an amazing new achievement, but in Disco it's SOP. Context is for Kings shows Andoria looking very different than it did on Enterprise, and that's just off the top of my head.
Which it is.
DSC is at odds with TNG as much as it is with TOS.
So minor niggles which by your own admission aren't consistent within the existing shows either. There must be a boatload of timelines out there if we're going to this level of detail.
I think the writers have brought it on themselves. They drew the line in the sand and made references to the origin show in the franchise. It's up to them to follow through.
Nah, its the level of realism that's new.
Well it's called "new holo-communicator", so I guess that means there an old version.
Was Andoria seen or just named dropped?
I mean more with events, history, culture etc.
Technology things like communicators, tricorders, holodecks, replicators, computer science, medical science, even quantum physics- I will forgive.
Well, when Lorca is showing Michael the spore drive demonstration at the end of Context is for Kings, he mentions Andoria when we see the planet with the Preserver obelisk on it. Which seems a good indication that planet is meant to be Andoria. But of course, on this forum Occam's Razor means squat.
Do the other locations match up with dialog?
As they're all planets we'd never seen before, I guess it's anyone's guess. Still, one would think that mentioning a planet's name each time we see a new setting would indicated those settings are the planets being named, no?
Fuck me up the goat ass, please tell me you're joking.
How many images to we see? How many locations does Lorca mention?
