Berman era is far superior to Kurtzman for me. TNG was 80 years frim the tos movie timeline amd we can clearly see things have advanced. The D is much larger and spacious. Luxurious to be honest. The brudgr has become much more streamlined and simplified. No more multiple stations around the bridge. Just the stations directly behind the command chairs and the railing controls. The ops is still in the front. We holodecks, better transporters. When the reached back to the nx-01 its really primitive. Small and cramped. Primitive plasma screens everywhere. No food replicators. Every era we see changes from STE to TOS to the TOS movies to the TNG era shows. The kurtzman era went back before tos and everything looks more advanced than the Berman era. We get to the 32nd century. At first we see a guy at the last starfleet post near earth. Everything looks and feels so different. Chairs with no legs. The computers look much more advanced. Everything he uses builds up with programmable matter. Everything. I liked that look. It truly felt more advanced. Books ship was also made of it. Than we get to SFA and programmable matter is now supposedly expensive and hard to come by. We rarely see it. Everything looks primitive. All the screens are just giant plasma built into walls and in the stations. The bridge of the Athena looks no different than all the other bridges we have seen. We are about 930 years from STD and SNW. 790 years from Picard and nothing seems much different in SFA. I find it hard to believe. All the kurtzman shows look similar in set design including the section 31 movie. . Also the stories are pretty forgettable except for the early season of SNW and picard season 3(which by the way got part if the tech right except the viewscreens were SNW and STD style). Bermans team just did much better.
