I thought the issue with Discovery was that it was written like a schlocky action movie and the crew are constantly at each other's throats

It's amazing, sometimes the complaint is that Disco is written like an action movie, and sometimes it's that it's written like a drama where the characters are overly emotional. I'm impressed that the writers have managed to create Schrodinger's televisions show, where it's in a quantum state of being whatever the person complaining about it needs it to be so long as they're able to drive a narrative of it being bad.

I'm not much of a fan of Discovery, as seems to be the case for many Trek fans. It's alright though. But this aspect I found myself enjoying. I liked the whole mycelial network angle.
Yeah, I like Disco because I think they're at least trying to do something, and that's interesting to me. They don't always succeed, but I respect the attempt. However, I fully get why people don't like it.
My issue is with the silly complaints, not what amounts to a matter of taste.
