That wasn't transwarp beaming. That was specifically stated in dialogue to be the Sikarian Spatial Trajector from Voyager.Yep, when transwarp beaming showed up in Picard to travel to Nepenthe, it was treated as something only the Borg queen's chamber could do and there was literally no mention of Scotty's method of doing this without Borg tech,
It's just not something that'll become a staple of Star Trek, is all I'm saying (like the above). Far too useful and convenient, especially the augment blood cure-all.But I don't think those things are actually what could occur with that tech. The transporter cures aging too.
I guess that's were I disagree. It's not a cure all. The transporter is a far closer cure all, from aging, to good/evil duplicate, as well as various programming ability.It's just not something that'll become a staple of Star Trek, is all I'm saying (like the above).

This is at least a reasonable assumption right?
The transporter is definitely wonderful, but I sill dont think we'll see transwarp beaming, transporter de-aging and augment blood resurrections (with limits!) more often.

Plus, the transporter could also beam at warp with appropriate modifcations:
TORRES: By synchronising the transporter's annular confinement beam to the warp core frequency.
KIM: Maybe, but at a relative speed of two billion kilometers per second, it's pretty tough to get a lock on somebody.
TUVOK: Ensign Kim is correct. We would risk scrambling his transporter signal and killing him. It would be a direct violation of Starfleet's safety protocols.
TORRES: Do you have a better idea? Trust me, Captain. I can do it.

Like many other tech, I don't see it as this all powerful thing. The story presented showcases limitations, nor does it actually remove present a cure all in any way that actually will linger with any permanent effects.
I just don't see how the how transwarp beaming, or augment blood treatments are so different from the transporter. I don't think they are upending anything from other macguffins.The transporter is definitely wonderful, but I sill dont think we'll see transwarp beaming, transporter de-aging and augment blood resurrections (with limits!) more often.

Some ultra-magical macguffins really do get buried and there's nothing wrong with that. Nothing at all.
YMMV, BUT you never know, you could see all three of those things used every season in Starfleet Academy! Kids tomorrow, and all. If so, enjoy!![]()
I've said my piece. If you think we should see more use of the previously discussed tech, then more power to you.I just don't see how the how transwarp beaming, or augment blood treatments are so different from the transporter. I don't think they are upending anything from other macguffins.
I don't think magical macguffins should get buried either. It's rather dumb given the constant insistence that everything is all perfectly within continuity of each other (as long as you don't read the fine print) yet technologies get tossed aside even though they would change the dynamics of the world. And no, transwarp beaming and blood based therapies are not in the top 10.
I believe for canon sake and continuity sake that it would be beneficial to see it again. I mean, look how it worked out for Star Trek IV.I've said my piece. If you think we should see more use of the previously discussed tech, then more power to you.
