        There’s nothing to decide. Wayland is the way of the future, and Enterprise will definitively upgrade to it some time before sd. 48681, as soon as they get some free time to do it!

        Mate, even Debian moved to Wayland as default in 2019.

      You know, even with the super advanced tech of Star Trek, I still think I’d want a bit more between me and death than an energy barrier. I don’t trust technology. I like redundancy.

      I get the same feeling when I see SpaceX’s Starship do the “flip and burn” landing maneuver.

        The redundancy is the door.

        But yeah, they must have tremendous amounts of faith of the heart to have the control console for that way out in the open instead of a separate control room.

          I mean it’s all digital crystals and voice overrides right? Could have one console up close on the floor and a more secure one back in the corner and control from the bridge.

          Best case the energy barrier is also the main thing keeping the doors open so when it fails that’s what triggers them to slam closed.

          Pretty much. A real structure would squish like a partially deflated balloon under the kinds of accelerations we see on Star Trek.

          Yes and no I would guess. Yes at a lower energy level like stasis / inertia / structure integrity buffers, plus the really super duper ones can deploy at a moment’s notice in case of an emergency, though it would be more efficient to not have those particular ones on 100% of the time.
