Yes but I'm sure in some reality someone could create a doomsday device that could destroy the multiverse without it.
Logically such thing must be impossible. If it was possible, the multiverse would have been destroyed already.
 
That isn't the point.

No, it really is.

Science advisor, no science advisor. It doesn't matter. Trek has never, ever been about scientifically accurate ideas. Some people may find this particular innaccurate idea too much for them to swallow - everyone's got their own reactions, and it's all good. But acting like this show is inferior because this scientifically ridiculous idea is "so much worse" than that one over there (why? because you said so) is flatly idiotic.
 
What is the point? Star Trek has never striven for scientific realism in the way it pretends to. Spore network is no madder than warp drive, slipstream or warp catapult, all under the watchful eye of Andre Bormanis.

I think it is madder. Whether it is sufficiently madder to bother someone is up to the individual.

It's not so much that it's just a load of technobabble. It's that the underlying premise is so ridiculous basic logic causes it to fall apart. It's nothing other than a massive plot contrivance with lots of holes in it. And it's not even a MacGuffin (like Red Matter) that we can just forget about and move on from, since it's central to the entire plot of the show, not introduced in the first act then ignored.
 
Instead of "reset" a more accurate statement would be "finally choose a direction and pray it doesn't get overruled by corporate oversight who are logically more interested in driving subscription growth than in making a coherent production"
 
Reset buttons are like any other cliche, they're just fine when we like the outcome and horrible when we don't. LOL
 
How to reset short of time travel or Q?
Quantum-interphase-technobabble-reversal-field combined with matter/anti-matter containment field failure (aka, self-destruct) during an ion storm. Voilà, reset button!

I want to see a reset back to pre-BoBS, just to see the reaction of the Interwebs to seeing whole season 1 of the first Star Trek series in 12 years wiped out. Seriously, I really want to see it!
 
Using the mycelial network threatened life in not just the PU and MU, but all universes
Unless Stamets was ... wrong.

Not a cut back, I have no problem with characters misspeaking and occasionally being wrong. I feel that Stamets is still in the process of completely understanding the mycelial network.
 
I doubt they'd reset the whole season but maybe just the last nine months. We'll have to see.
Haven't seen you in a while. *waves*


I'm cheered by the content of episode 14, on the subject of resets. They seemed to be taking us in a different direction after heavily signposting the time machine last episode. It also felt like they backtracked on the severity of the war, but that may just be Saru being a drama queen the week before.

His threat ganglia are not exactly fully functional. I mean he was Lorcas right hand dude, and he could still wear a hat if he wanted.
