Remember The Short Skirt Guys?

That made no sense though. It should of been explained. Did they have that outfit in storage. Whenever anyone else has had that “honor” they get a uniform (proper)

Being declared an "acting ensign" was an unusual event. But suddenly Wes starts wearing a grey uniform with the mustard, teal and wine stripes. Obviously not yet on any one career specialty track, but obviously a uniform.

Such as...?

ST:TMP featured "spray 'n' wear" clothing, assembled on the person after their sonic shower. No need to imagine uniforms "in storage". In 2020 we 3-D print all manner of things. Imagine that: the 24th century replicators can do it even better!

Since when has clothing in SF TV been explained? Deanna wore catsuits, and then dresses, for years after her first appearance in a Starfleet uniform skant.

Some officers in ST II wore maroon jackets, other crew wore one-piece jumpsuits.

Up to the viewers to interpret what that all means.
 
17th century French Aristocracy, earlier, would just poop where ever without consideration, like horses.

Maybe the short skirt guys are aliens who poop where ever without consideration, like horses?

They did that in other cities throughout Europe also.
Hopefully they wear some sort of undergarment. The skirts are too short and worse than pooping on the street 800 years prior, would be the fecal matter on chairs
all over the Enterprise.
 
They don’t poop in the future. We never saw, let alone did anyone ever go to the head. Bathrooms have sonic showers, a pullout drawer or faucet with running water (no soap, though...anti-microbial water?), and maybe a replicator, for tea, Earl Grey, hot.
 
Replicators are the toilets.

Today's porridge is yesterday's poop, is the day before yesterday's porridge.
