SNW truly respects TOS continuity!

Heck, up until the 1970s or thereabouts you rarely saw an automatic pistol being used by either police or the killers in police shows. It's hard for me to think of an original 1968-78 episode of Columbo wherein the murderer uses a handgun to commit the crime and it's not a revolver. Yet automatic pistols, submachine guns and fully automatic assault weapons existed by the millions both in America and worldwide during that time. It's just that police often wielded service revolvers and not what military personnel would carry and criminals often had to rely on the cheapest, most common firearms they could find.

Cage/WNMHGB uniforms seem to have been seen on April and Pike in a photo in one of the episodes at: https://twitter.com/TrekCore/status/1535981065034207234 . Which means for some reason the crew was wearing those specific uniforms during those 2 episodes. I still say they're a form of dress uniform.

A bit casual for a dress uniform.

Let's face it. Starfleet R&D just stays busy in the 23rd century and beyond. They commission new uniforms every week.

Nobody can tell me money doesn't exist in the 23rd century. Nobody would do this much redesigning for free.

The monster maroons were designed for free, by a six year old.

A replicator version of Dall-E makes all of them.

Why would the entire ship be wearing dress uniforms for routine duty shifts, beaming down to a planet to rescue crash survivors (where the uniforms are covered by jackets and not visible anyway) or beaming down to an outpost to scavenge its parts to repair the ship?

The thing about dress uniforms is that they are the fancy-schmancy uniforms worn for formal and ceremonial occasions. Those are the uniforms with all the bling and flair and medals that are tailored to make the wearer look impressive.

It's hard to look impressive in the ill-fitting, baggy velour mock turtlenecks that are the pilot uniforms. They are too schlubby to be believable dress uniforms. The pilot uniforms are more believable as a lower classification of workaday basic duty uniforms, perhaps a step or two lower on the classification scale than the uniforms introduced in Discovery season 2.

[One thing TMP got right with their much-derided uniforms was the sheer variety in everyday work uniforms (longsleeved and shortsleeved variants and styles of differing degrees of apparent formality) and fatigues.]

Don't bring Star Trek the Animated Series into this discussion...

The TOS desktop monitors are back in next week's episode.

Also there's the TOS padd on the desk.

Sam: Am I being fired?
Pike: What? Ahh…Uhh…Yes.

PIKE: "Sam. We need to talk about your flair."

Likewise, the multiple uniform variants is one of the few things I thought the Kelvin Timeline movies got right.
