Agreed, and actually I’m fine with some ideas not being everyone’s favorite. As the Vulcan philosophy says, infinite diversity in infinite combinations (IDIC).
What I was mainly referring to was the VERY long standing attitude from Paramount to viciously come after anyone who does anything remotely resembling Star Trek assets. Non-profit fan based stuff included. If they aren’t getting a cut, then you WILL NOT do it. Learned that in the 80s, wondering why programs made n BASIC were obviously modeled off of Star Trek stuff, but used other names for everything.
lots of long time Star Trek fans’ eyes twitch
