  • The computer differentiates. Not sure why this is such a leap. The system is able to perfectly rebuild you because it analyzes you as you come in. It needs to know what to rebuild so it scans every part to rebuild. The system is able to tell between a tricorder and a phaser. There is no way for a villain to capitalize on this if they're the one beaming onto any Starfleet ship because Starfleet is in control.

  • You could attack the away party and nuke the planet but it makes no sense to do so. Congrats. You've killed a couple people from the away team. The only thing you've done is guarantee you'll be hunted down by Starfleet.

  • The deflector shields prevent ships from ramming ships. The shields prevent matter from entering.

  • Anti matter is insanely volatile and you're not going to be able to casually pack the ship full of it

  • Ships have been used as suicide vessels that let their warp drive go critical. They've done this on ships in space as well as entering space stations cloaked and then detonating.

  • Nah, it is not "fucking stupid".

See, that's a logical and reasonable explanation and LastYearsPumpkin@feddit.ch ought to take lessons from you.

Nah, it is not "fucking stupid"

Ehh. I'm still not quite sold on that point, but I accept your explanations for the others.

Yeah I'm just going to go ahead and block you. You come into a Star Trek community throwing a fit about Star Trek, insulting it all based off of your own complete ignorance on the situation, and then have the fucking nerve to insult everyone else?

Some repugnant ass behavior. I'm sorry to @LastYearsPumpkin@feddit.ch. Just ignore this jerk.

∆∆ Yeah, I figured they would react like that even with positive acknowledgement of anything logical they had to say, because surprise-surprise, they weren't actually speaking in good faith, they were just angry someone pointed out plot holes in some dumb TV show that their own friend even acknowledged is just fiction and doesn't matter.

You all are highly highly oversensitive and you need to grow up. If it's just fiction don't throw temper tantrums when people point out plot holes because you can't tolerate any sort of criticism toward a TV show of all things.
