Yes. That's why I don't believe anyone who says, "Oh, the Japanese were ready to surrender before the two bombs were dropping..."
Overall the foreboding was overall MORE deadly and destructive to the Japanese infrastructure and population, but no, even after that, the Japanese refused to surrender.
The surrender terms the Japanese wanted were more like those of a Victor. Also, while yes, they wanted to do more negotiating - after the end of the war in Europe, they thought they could get Stalin and Russia involved as an intermediary (and thought Russia might even support their terms); and they were shocked when Russia invaded and attacked Japanese held Manchuria as they didn't expect Russia to join the war in the Pacific.
I'm not saying there are undertones but in the original script Burke and Samno's quarters had a disco ball
So Star Trek is doing it's job. Offending the bigoted.
"Know what this is?"
"The end result of the 2053 EuroVision contest going horribly wrong?"
They didn't. They had genetic coding techniques that could temporarily simulate Kileyite appearance, based, presumably, on close observation. Later, Chapel says she'll need "real Kiley DNA" to fix Spock's problem, which is when they start testing their "guests."
Yeah but given that Una was handling First Contact and got captured I wonder how they got any of that data. At best from the Archer's computer?
I assume it's based photographs and video not any in depth scans.
One could surmise that Una sent all relevant data already collected by the ships sensors back to Star Fleet before beaming down.
(just like Captain Esteban ordered his comm. officer to do before the USS Grissom got blown up)
One could also presume that once the Enterprise got to the planet, they scanned the USS Archer's files for same.

Notice the garish bigotry in your remark that earned you a trolling warning. You're not making any friends here.
They had upgraded/better sensors than the USS Archer(Sock mentioned they did) and obviously did their own scans to find out the social situation that Spock briefed La'an and Pike on before they went to Sickbay.
Second trolling warning, same bigoted shit.

I love how Prime Pike and Kelvin Pike interrupt one of his officers from getting lucky. (In STID, Pike cock block Kirk from hitting on a girl in a bar and in SNW, Pike interrupted Spock just as he and T'Pring were getting their groove on.)
You forgot the actor from The Menagerie
I called him to get a picture but all I got was some sort of busy signal.....You forgot the actor from The Menagerie
