this is really interesting considering in the Kelvin movies, that's considered a strength and one of Kirk's defining features. one of my favorite tjings about this current wave of trek is how it takes apart the idea of the idea of the perfect, mythic captain. They feel more human this go around, which makes the times they do shine and embody the classic captain archetype that much more powerful
To me it feels like a callback (call forward?) to Wrath of Khan, where he has to come to terms with having never faced defeat before.
