Or to cut to the chase
Might as well claim dilithium crystals are real because of the real world dilithium (Li2)
It didn't. See above.
No, it actually did... You should probably read the actual science parts instead of the disambiguation...
I repeat:
While presumably inspired by the concept of neutron-degenerate matter in the cores of neutron stars, the material used in fiction bears at most only a superficial resemblance, usually depicted as an extremely strong solid under Earth-like conditions, or possessing exotic properties such as the ability to manipulate time and space. In contrast, all proposed forms of neutron star core material are fluids and are extremely unstable at pressures lower than that found in stellar cores.
It doesn't matter if Neutronium is real or not (it's not), just that it's the 32nd century, so being able to shrug at and counter neutronium should be an expected thing.
The 23rd century folks were the ones in awe at neutronium a few episodes, which fits its theoretical aspect in TOS. If this was Strange New Worlds or Discovery Seasons 1 and 2 or even a Berman-era production, I would balk the treatment of fictional yet durable neutronium as no big deal. But it's not. It's the far future with a baddie who appears to be far superior, technologically, than any previous ones encountered, save the few super-evolved guys on higher planes.

It's got a trigger, so the shape makes it seem like some kind of big gun. But it doesn't look like any type of phaser I've ever seen, including the 32nd century phaser featured prominently in the opening credits. Maybe it's some type of antique weapon he was using to defend himself before being disarmed.
Nilsson wasn't on the bridge, or in the episode even.
I kept wondering who that was at her station.
Lt. Ina, per credits, played by the great Avaah Blackwell without her usual Osnullus head on.
Did Linus's actor show up too?
I don't know as i didn't write the episode. But, it could be that vance stood down as osyraa threatened to execute discovery's crew, or there is a mole at HQ that shut down the base defenses.
One would assume that in the 32nd century there are weapons that can damage Neutronium.
Ooh! Tilly has a plan to take back the ship! Probably incorporates dark matter, Reno's licorice, Linus's boogers, and science!
Or maybe she'll just befriend Osyraa by offering her dramamine to help with her space-sickness -- that Orion is the wrong shade of green.

That woman taking orders from Ossyra; her uniform looks Klingon-esque. Plus she has some bumps on her head. Maybe half-Klingon?
Or maybe like humans they come it different shades?
She looks very familiar. I was thinking she was an Antaran, but the ridges aren't quite right.
