I’ve always wondered what the ship museum looks like.What we need is a scene that looks like this:

Lots of ships there for Picard to steal.
I'm already firmly of the opinion TOS has no place in the universe now. Waiting for the inevitable remake and them going on about how it all fits together.
They could have alternated the holograms of the TOS Enterprise and the DSC Enterprise and made just about everybody happy.
They are wanting to discreetly distance themselves from TOS.
It won't work.
After Discovery, I'm okay with them never mentioning TOS again.
Fandom likes to be angry.
If the option is seeing nothing but DSC visual retcons(despite the fact that CBS still makes tons of money off the TOS look and sells books, comics, graphic novels, visual guides, licensed models, etc. faithfully replicating and honoring that look) then the fewer visual nods the better.
It is funny how they're trying to have it both ways.
There was a way they could. Show both versions of the pre-refit Enterprise. But they won't do that.
Some straight pylons would have helped that version. John Eaves was giving them to us...then...well, you know.
Don’t know why. TOS merch still sells better than anything else.
If anything they should be embracing it.

They can "visually reboot" TOS all they want. I'll just imaginarily boot it right back.
Whatever a current production says the TOS looked like, doesn't change what TOS actually looked like.

The cool kids don't like blinky lights and thin pylons.
Why?
I'm really happy they did this!It shows this, then cycles to the Enterprise-D
No. Starships are a lot more sturdy.

I think it will. As soon as that Pike show so many keep demanding comes out the transition will be complete. In a way it's going to be a monkey's paw wish by some. They're never going to revisit how TOS looked again unless it's for something very specific and a one off. If they want to play in the TOS era going forward, and it looks like they actually do, it's going to be based on what has been done in Discovery season 1 and 2. The use of the new version of the Enterprise here I think helps solidifies that as well as the other Discovery connections in Picard so far.
