They're good lessons, so why insult it? Why mock quality storytelling that makes good impressions on people?

And BSG was some of the best storytelling on TV, ever.

And, when someone mentions Star Trek as a good example of engineering, I can’t do anything other than laugh. Do they really need to pass high power systems behind crewed consoles on the bridge so they can explode dramatically?
