I dunno, having Yar's baby momma show up and drop off a kid would have been a challenge to write in the late 80s / early 90s.

Their treatment of Ferengi women is also arguably slavery.

and they certainly treated specific items as “valuable” (historical items, weapons, and especially liquor.)

Historical items definitely have non-monetary value. They can't truly be replaced since, no matter how accurate the replica, only the one chair will be the Enterprise-A's captain's chair, for example. Replicators have software restrictions on what you can make with them, so you can't just replicate weapons under normal circumstances, which creates scarcity and gives them value. Starfleet replicators also seem to be restricted from creating alcohol, which means most of the characters we see can only get it on shore leave, which also creates scarcity and therefor value. Alcohol is probably significantly less scarce when sourced through civilian replicators. The ones on DS9 are programmed with Starfleet's restrictions, though.

And if you're a Romulan, especially your allies.

Common misconception. There were several different emblems for different parts of the fleet, but each ship did not have a unique emblem. Someone from the costume department assumed that each ship had a unique emblem and one episode had it wrong, but we also have the memo telling them to not do that again.

I've heard that Data was originally going to be a science officer and the blue uniform didn't work with his makeup, but I don't know whether or not it was true.

Live action Mariner, too.

The peptalk that Mariner gave T’Lyn was absolutely fantastic. There were so many good moments in this episode, but that is probably my favorite.

"Then I suppose, by the transitive property, that I, too, am 'as Vulcan as a motherfucker.'"

And somehow managed to be the first person in Starfleet history to get in trouble for it. Nobody else on that ship or on any ship ever got in trouble for boinking aliens.

"I don't have a big enough helmet to approve production of moopsy plushes."

And now I wonder if they were poking at the random numbers when Boimler couldn't figure out what the stardate would be and just said 'the past'.

I was very skeptical when Lower Decks was announced and didn't watch any until the first season had finished, but it and Strange New Worlds are some of the most fun content to come out of this era of Trek. The whole show is just overflowing with love for the franchise.
