Never liked Pulaski - not one jot.
With regards to her personality, neither did I. Not a personable sort IMHO, & in some ways rather rude. However, I did get the impression they were presenting her as a more maverick & outstanding type doctor than Bev.

I will say this. Whenever Kate was out of line with her business, it was more often just herself she was being risky with. There's been times Bev really irked me by putting everybody at risk, over her insistences. In that aspect I kind of preferred Pulaski... Professionally
 
I don't know but we've all gotta go sometime.

Hikaru Sulu gets a ship with his first and last name, while Uhura only gets her last name.

Reasoning: More than one Uhura surnamed-person/place by that name had distinguished his/her/itself sufficiently by that point in time, while no other Sulu at the time was deemed significant enough.
Sorry, wouldn't it make sense that there's only one famous Uhura (thus no need to disambiguate the ship name) but several Sulus (that's why they specify it's the Hikaru Sulu).

It's fun to joke about Pulaski's grim fate, the way we joke about a certain Voyager character being Starfleet's only 85-year-old ensign. But realistically speaking, Pulaski probably just decided that the Enterprise was not for her and moved on. Or, Picard wanted Beverly back and made a few behind the scenes horse trades, and Pulaski was made an offer she couldn't refuse by some admiral who owed Jean-Luc a favor.
 
I mean you'd think if anyone had the best chance to survive a year on the flagship, it would be the doctor
 
Normally if I don't see my friend for a while I don't automatically jump to the conclusion that they must have died.

Why does it have to be death for Pulaski? It's a big universe.
