Boom!
1) The Anthology idea was abandoned long before Discovery started production
2) If CBS executives weren't happy with Fuller's ideas, they wouldn't have greenlit Discovery in the first place, let alone put it on the air
Me neither, this place is an escape from reality!
I took at look at the comments section on facebook on Star Trek Continues group.
I've seen things..

Of course it is... since there are a number of posters here refusing to accept reality when it comes to Discovery.
Ahhhhhh you!
The whales in STAR TREK IV have never been mentioned again. The Genesis Device was never mentioned on TNG or any of its spawn. Kirk never mentioned Edith Keeler again. Uhura never mentions that time she had her mind wiped. Decker, Ilia, and V'Ger have never been mentioned again. Kirk' never mentions having to kill his best friend, Gary Mitchell. Most of Kirk's love interests vanish without explanation.
If the criteria is "it's not canon unless it's referenced more than once," than I'm afraid that most of STAR TREK is not "canon."
FYI: I mentioned Sybok in one of the novels just a few years ago. Nobody blinked and insisted he wasn't canon.
Yeah, that's what happened.
Based on Disco, I don't even get why Sarek even had a low opinion of Starfleet. His adopted daughter joined Starfleet by his insistence, he's good friends with a Starfleet Captain (Georgiou) and he even got to hang out with Starfleet Admirals, go on tactical missions with them, and even had a part in plotting the potential destruction of Qo'nos for Starfleet. And yet a decade later he shows disdain for Starfleet and the Enterprise officers.
Or is it the Enterprise in particular that earned his ire, and the season 2 premiere is going to expand on that?

Maybe the Enterprise in particular precisely because it's Spock's ship?
Except in TVH he stated that he actually loathed Kirk and the other senior staff for some reason.

Surely that actually makes more sense, he isn't able to deal with and rationalise those emotions because under any other circumstance his Vulcan control keeps them in check. Therefore he acts irrationally towards the crew of Spock's ship by association?
In ten years opinions can't change?
I've bolded the important part here. Sarek is ashamed (as he can be for a Vulcan) for plotting genocide. Starfleet agreed with that plan, and he judges them to be bad people for not refusing to go along with that plan.
After finding out that her husband has genocidal tendencies, Amanda has an affair with Pike, Sarek wants a challenge to the death, Starfleet refuses and covers the whole thing up, Sarek illogically despises every Starfleet officer from that moment.
