Same! I've always considered time travel to be a "plot cheat code" because it allows writers to do whatever they want. This works out ok sometimes but other times it just makes for bizarre stories that defy belief. This would definitely be the latter kind!

I enjoy ST largely because it's believable (in a broad strokes ignore the details kind of way) so far-fetched stories don't do it for me as much. Time travel is firmly in "never gonna happen" territory.

In some contexts this would be called a solution without a problem. I couldn't agree more!

I thought trans people were a good fit for the metaphor, given the body alterations that can be involved.

I really like this Spock, don't get me wrong, but I'm finding his increasing "humanness" a bit distracting. I mean, making a joke in court? That was a bit far-fetched.
