Yeah, that had big "actually the transporter can do basically anything and could and should win every battle" nerding out energy.
You might like this, then. Or hate it.

Oh, I know it.
It felt like aftershocks of the staggering homophobic and racist rage inferno that broke out when Jar Jar Binks first came to theaters.
I so get you about why Stamets mattered. He was a fun recurring guest character on Star Trek Online too and had lots of spoken dialogue with the usual "funny yet depressed" vibes.
I'm old enough that I still groan when I hear percolating returns of the "DAE KIRK KILLED OR FUCKED EVERYTHING THAT MOVED" ultra-Flanderization
of decades past.
How much actual Those Old Scientists did those people watch? It's hard for me to think of a single Klingon that Kirk actually killed with direct action on-screen in the original show, for example.
Flanderization is a fuck.
