What TOS-era character could have captained the Enterprise-B?

[Riley]

Apparently tie-in media for Picard claimed Saavik did get command of the USS Titan in 2290. However, everyone forgets that Saavik's birthyear is roughly 2264, meaning she'd be 26 in 2290 and 29 in 2293, all absurdly young ages for someone to get command outside of Kelvin Kirk.

Thankfully, the tie-in media for Picad is even easier to disregard than Picard itself!
