This one had a couple of turns of phrase that smacked of an inexperienced Trek writer: Riker introduced himself as "Commanding officer William Riker" (rather than "Commander" or "First Officer"), and Crusher called him "Bill" rather than "Will".

On the bright side, I can rationalise these as evidence that this is far from a canon story. 🤣

The Bill thing at least is a joke about TNG season 1 - they had Troi call him Bill and it was in the early series bible that Picard would call him William and he would be called Bill by "close female friends." I hate these shorts (although I'm glad they exist for the animation, at least), but that was a pretty funny callback.
