- Following on SNW's premiere, transporter tech can beam subcutaneous comms (presumably meaning a whole tricom, since we see them use both functions) DURING transport. But NOT following SNW, Burnham and Tilly gear up in the local threads before beaming down.
- Answering my question of a few weeks ago, "retinal tricorders" CAN project a HUD-like interface directly onto the eyeball.
- OTOH, there's no indication that whatever comms they have are able to beam anyone personally, furthering the notion that tricoms need to leverage the ship's transporter system. Or perhaps the "comms" they were implanted with were only for speaking and seeing, not beaming.
- The Merian-class USS Locherer was mentioned here as being assigned to tail Moll and L'ak. She was seen but not referenced three episodes ago, yay continuity!
