Sunset?

Do you think the "Cardassian" Sunset mentioned in NuTrek 1 was confused with the Samarian Sunset that was established in TNG and DS9? It was a favourite of Natima Lang.

Considering that the bulk of the script for that movie was written by a couple of big TNG fans, I imagine that the "Cardassian Sunrise" (not Sunset - ha, ninja'd) was a deliberate choice — possibly in part an allusion to the beverage first shown in "Conundrum" (in the same way that the Samarian Sunset was itself a 24th-c. analogue of the 20th-century Tequila Sunrise) — rather than the result of any confusion.
 
Well, I guess for those dealing with the seven year itch who aren't pretentious enough to do that whole ceremony thing.
 
It's also possible that they got from Tequila Sunrise to Cardassian Sunrise directly.
