Now we've learned the true purpose of the black badges: merchandising opportunities.
Just you?
Well, it's true to Gene's Vision, if nothing else.
Small scale ships are my thing, I like some of the background ships that are being released by Gentle Giant, esp. The Clarke and Europa, I'll probably get them all just to have them. (Even though I'm not a huge fan of Discovery the show, I don't hate it either or think it ruined Star Trek) Anyway, I'm guessing these are anywhere from 4"-6" in. long? Probably will cost 10-12 USD a pop? wonder if I'll have to get them from Amazon. (I don't see any of this stuff showing up Retail)
Disappointing about Diamond selects showing, At least hopefully they fixed the QC and light bleed issues that seem to plague the Refit Connie, not that I'll be buying it anyway, I WOULD however buy a Reliant and a K'Tinga if they would release that, or at minimum a ST:TMP version of the Refit, with the Tan Deflector, (Or even a color changing one, if wishes were horses)

Probably was Fuller's original intent to have Starfleet doing some shady shit. But, then the "superfans" took over and we got non-sense.
You'd think the superfans would be all over that shit. Section 31 y'all!
Starfleet is a centuries old bureaucracy. They can have more than one shady sub-department.
"Black badges, we're so secret we don't even have a name, except we DO have a uniform, just to keep you guessing. We're so secret we're not even sure what WE do but we do not what YOU do. Maybe."

People don't actually believe that Porgs are in The Last Jedi because they were designed as pillars of the story narrative, do they?
Not unless we get a toy casting couch and a doll with a flexible hip action feature.
Unless they do something typically nonsensical and have EvilMU!Georgiou found Section 31 and serve as it's head.
They exist in part to cover for the puffins living on Skellig Michael. If puffins get in the shot, the audience simply assumes they're porgs.People don't actually believe that Porgs are in The Last Jedi because they were designed as pillars of the story narrative, do they?
And they make great toys.
A Wookiee friend of mine claims they also taste alright too.
Oohhh...I like that., though, technically, not canonical.
