Well it definitely was hilarious but I would also have been open for some quality Klingon opera

However, the message of Trek also is that not all change is good, already evident in the M5 episode of TOS. There's no shame in taking a step back if the prior state was superior, which some think it is (with regard to the 20 episode scheme)
How did it feel rushed? We had a new adventure every week that was largely unrelated to the previous one, and character development was distributed all throughout the season. The only thing I felt was rushed were some of the episodes like the one with the tower (Among the Lotus Eaters) where the resolution to the conflict came very surprisingly and abruptly, but longer seasons wouldn't have changed that.
Yeah Spiner's acting in that episode is great, it's a bit ridiculous and over the point but I believe that that was intentional, and I am not holding it against the episode
Wow thanks, that really explains well why the modern shows respect (at least some of) "beta canon" more than what I would expect. A natural consequence when some of the authors sit in the writer's room :)
What makes you think that M'Benga will be demoted? There wasn't anything hinted like that at all
I think it's far more plausible that Spock simply didn't scan for life signs, as his mission was to install the rockets and had nothing to do with rescuing any survivors in the first place, he stumbled upon Chapel by accident. It's also logical to assume that there would not be any other survivors left in the same space as Chapel as from Spock's perspective, she would have brought such along or at least have informed him of them. Therefore, we can conclude that there wasn't any misconduct from either of the two.
