Data keeps acting slightly differently from episode to episode for a lot of seasons depending on who's writing and what's required for the plot. So does Riker, actually, whose spectrum ranges roughly from "Starfleet's greatest love machine" to "drill sergeant".

I think they drop the gag where Data recites a dictionary entry for too long by season 2 as well.

If you look in the background briefly in Discovery there's a few guys wearing the skant, but they were too cowardly to do it as more than an easter egg. Give me Captain Pike in a miniskirt, damnit. Man's ripped, let him fly those thighs.

Give us an episode with a saucy woman captain who insists all her men wear skants

If skants are allowed why not skorts or even cargo skorts? The line must be drawn here, this far and no further.

Descent is weirdly modern in how it picks up threads from earlier episodes but also has things turn grim and gritty. "Remember this good episode? Surprise, things turned to utter poo poo!" (Although granted: I, Borg wasn't exactly happy butterflies and ponies.) Also in how it portrays Starfleet command staff as ethically and morally inferior to Picard. And it's far from the only TNG episode to do that. As much as we go on about Picard dropping the ball on Star Trek ideals, Starfleet turning bureaucratically inhumane doesn't 100% come out of nowhere as a plot point.

French is at least an international language that spans the globe and is backed by a critical mass of arts and letters. Scottish is as ludicrous as encountering space Maltese or space Flemish.

I mean, maybe they got kicked out of Scotland and became space jews? In the sense that as a Scottish interstellar diaspora they preserved their culture in hostile environments through avoiding intermarriage, etc.

The French accent only exists in the holodeck. Holodeck character speaks with a French accent, the person it's based on speaks with an American accent.

languages became commercial IP in the 2030s and so the French language is actually just the word for the languages owned by the major French media conglomerate.
