Perhaps it's functions were folded into the medical tricorder?Psychotricorders would solve so many problems in Star Trek storylines after "Wolf in the Fold(TOS)," but those devices are shown and described once and never, ever reappear after 1967.

What? Just because no one giving testimony was lying?SNW kinda brought back the lie detector chair, but it didn't seem to be used as a lie detector.
Some magic tech is used again, but the ones I mentioned likely won't be reused for practical reasons.So like most magic tech?
Never understood why these two things draw such ire.![]()

Shipless travel and the possibility to render a lot of death in Trek pointless. I don't really need to say anything else, it speaks for itself.What are the practical reasons?
The blood is hardly as magical as it is lampooned as being. It took two weeks if infusions to help Kirk recover. The transwarp beaming us imprecise and requires additional devices to make sure it works.
Limits are built in and easily more could be added.
But I don't think those things are actually what could occur with that tech. The transporter cures aging too.Shipless travel and the possibility to render a lot of death in Trek pointless. I don't really need to say anything else, it speaks for itself.
Its Impractical because you're definitely going to have to add more and more limits to even keep any semblance of stakes in this show.
But you knew that, because even you said about limits being built in and added. So there is a part of you that knows that both concepts have an inheritant show-breaking flaw.
TOS had a lot of magical tech, starting with WARP Drive & the Transporter, that solved several episode problems.But I don't think those things are actually what could occur with that tech. The transporter cures aging too.
Because folks are looking for a reason to dislike those shows?TOS had a lot of magical tech, starting with WARP Drive & the Transporter, that solved several episode problems.
Why are any of the following shows found to be more guilty doing the same thing?
The fifth movie had a modified warp engine that could get from Earth to the center of the galaxy in a matter of days. Never again mentioned, but buried somewhere in Starfleet's long, storied files of "things we used to know about but will now conveniently forget."TOS had a lot of magical tech, starting with WARP Drive & the Transporter, that solved several episode problems.

Only if you're an outsider.Even the Klingons buried most knowledge of the Augment Virus.![]()
We do not speak of it even with the hip insiders.
Of course you did…Ok...I'll just disagree with this assessment because I can't even begin to fathom writing as "chicken shit."
I found it very much organic.
