I voted the E.
The D looks more advanced. If you didn’t know what time period they each came out of you’d think the E was the D’s predecessor. The D is more frightening because it doesn’t give a toss about appearing more powerful. It simply is. In its time period, nothing the Klingons or Cardassians or other adversaries had could compete, and the Romulans had to build something twice as large to try to.
The E definitely wins. That’s life. But it does not because it looks kewl.I can't say that I agree that the D looks more advanced. It looks different than the D. The D looks like a ceremonial ship. Albeit one that can deliver a hard punch, which it has done when needed. It's a formidable ship. The E on the other hand looks like it was built for war, for action. It's no-nonsense. Seeing as how the E came after the D, I have to believe it is more advanced. Which one would win in a fight? Who knows.
Not if your plan is to be star trekking. The idea being, they are a crew of travelers that live between & amidst the stars. This is just all my personal perspective of course. Having the next evolution of Kirk's ship become more of a home in space seemed rather intuitive to me. They are more used to living out there.That's what colonies are for.
can’t really agree on this: Voyager’s one really worked for me and Enterprise’s was nice new approach to the idea that also harked back to the TMP one. The Defiant engineering also conveyed the basic idea while being appropriately cramped for a warship. I don’t even remember if we ever saw the Discovery or SNW ones.^ I’m actually amazed how uninteresting a lot of the Engineering sets have been since TNG. Something about that woom woom woom sound and look of the core just really works.
VOY’s reaction chamber looked like an after though and stood around where their feet were. The change from the white early seasons core to the blue later seasons seemed strange. And the lighting effect that they used on the inside seemed really cheap whenever the core stopped; when in motion it looked like this cauldron of unfathomably violent energies, but when it stopped it was a couple of light projectors that stopped twirling, projecting a pattern on the inside of the tube.can’t really agree on this: Voyager’s one really worked for me and Enterprise’s was nice new approach to the idea that also harked back to the TMP one.

The D is vastly better and more original a design than the E, which is a kludge that never met a detail from some previous iteration that it didn'trip offlove.
The D was as much a character as Picard or Riker. The E was simply a location.
But yeah, D because D is for Deanna who crashes starships.
