One of my best friends has been pushing that show on me a lot. He’d be so pissed if he found out a Trek community was what got me to watch it and not him…
My favorite part of that plot was how Starfleet somehow doesn’t care that he genetically modified himself to gain superpowers, but multiple other people almost get the boot for something their parents did.
To be fair, said superpowers weren’t the kind of thing that would make him a viable supersoldier or unstoppable terrorist like Kahn.
Admiral: About this Stamets guy, can we review the footage of his illegal genetic modification powers?

Admiral: Ow, fuck, that looks incredibly painful. These mods are only good for this one task? And he can only do it with that machine, from that room, on that specific ship? And he’s okay with doing this to himself every time?! Yeah, we’re good.
