today I propose to reinvent the car
*tech investors nod silently*
the first issue is capacity, a car only holds 4-5 people. I suggest chaining together many cars
*tech investors begin to smile*
the second is safety, they crash all the time! I propose a fixed route for each car chain
*tech investors are talking happily to each other in agreement*
the third is price, much too expensive for many people. I propose this system be publically owned
*tech investors scream as they head for fire escapes*
trek rant
seen a lot of articles complaining that the discovery got an A after the registry number despite not being destroyed, but it was destroyed (according to all Starfleet records) 930 years before this refit happened. it makes more sense to give it a new registry than to be like "we got a 1000 year old ship still running"
