Yeah, at this point, with Star Trek I pretty much just treat the "science" like magic. It would be a tall order to have consistent rules with no exceptions over decades, I get that. I don't think it's too much to ask the characters to have consistent motivations and abilities, though.
That's the thing about fiction. Unlike in reality, the characters have to be believable.
