Which would work if the first times we saw it had been in the 32nd.

Sadly, the giant turbolift maze happens in the 23rd, too. So it can't be future tech.
Oh ok I can't recall seeing it before the time jump
Yeah, we first see it in S2, it was part of the "fix canon" initiatives that season had, specifically they felt a need to explain why a ship larger than a Constitution class has significantly fewer crew than it. The answer: the ship's interior is largely hollow in order to house a turbolift roller coaster and all the habitable areas are located along the perimeter. Then they went and completely undid this explanation in the Q&A Short Trek by showing the Enterprise also has a turbolift roller coaster.
Someone did basic measurements based off the size of the turbolifts and such in the Season 2 scene, I wish I could find the tweet now, and that section could theoretically fit inside the Discovery's secondary hull, it wasn't bigger than it.
Doesn't make it any more silly, but it does fit, tightly.

Terra Firma is one of the best two part episodes in Trek. For the briefest of moments the flower of humanity showed openness to change
Try to get any closer and a Saurian might suddenly appear right in front of you
Definitely poor design as they're nigh unreadable at distance, which defeats rank insignia purpose.
