I very much doubt that the Romulans (and the Klingons) before the 32nd Century would ever agree to a ban on time travel.
Which BTW is proven in this particular episode.

So the DTI has had its job cut out for it for quite some time.
(never mind dealing with just the apparent multitude of Fed incursions)

And I still think it would be logical for Pelia to have created the Dept. to being with.

Welcome to one of the many reasons the very idea of a ban is nonsensical.

Other's include, "random unknown race discovering time travel and ruining the galaxy with it", "time travelers from other galaxy's showing up and fucking things up", and "criminals who decide they don't care about the law and just do it anyways.".
 
If the ban really is an agreement between parties, then the Guardian isn't a problem, but if they use technology to enforce the ban then it's a problem. But they don't say how it's enforced in the show, so it's not a plot hole. I can't remember, does the ban come up at all in the Guardian Disco episode? (edit: I see it does, the Guardian is presented as unique and apparently the only way to time travel left)

They don't have to, it only applies to time after the war. They don't even need to know about it, all they know is that any time agents sent that far forward never return.

So because it's not fully enforceable no one should try?

That's some bs right there. Ban Time Travel as soon as possible.
 
Very poor episode. Same auld copy and paste back to the present stuff. La'an was impressive and looks fantastic in he Girl With the Starfleet Tattoo look but she wasn't enough to keep the episode interesting.
 
It's an alternate timeline 2009 because they didn't want to erase decades of continuity. Also, Paramount didn't own CBS, which still owned the television rights.

Now Paramount and CBS are owned by the same people again, so it is one timeline again.

It's never been a story driven experience, it's been a IP property ownership one.
The main reason was to let everything be possible because Vulcan could be destroyed and Amanda killed and no one knew Earth would be fine etc.

Khan of Star Trek Into Darkness is specifically said to be a 300 year old man, if he were SNW's version it'd be 200.

So SNW is trying to retcon Space Seed and Picard tried to the same with 'Project Khan' in Picard Season 2. The hilarious thing? They don't even match up.

According to Picard Season 2, Project Khan is funded in 1996 and Adam Soong pulls up the file in 2024. The implication being that Adam makes Khan sometime after 2024.

However, SNW says Khan is roughly a 10 year old kid already alive in 2022, 2 years before Picard Season 2!

Even if you view the Picard Season 2 file as meaning Khan was actually made shortly after 1996, it still wouldn't match strange new worlds because he should be around 20 in SNW.

Picard implies Khan's origins are based in Los Angeles, but he's shown growing up in Toronto Canada in SNW.

What a mess.
Soong's role is simply not known. All we saw was a project report title page :D
