    “Discovery is unavailable because X”

    Also, did they have what seems to be personal transporters before or is that a new thing? Where they apparently only have to think “I need to go to that room” and they’re instantly transported? That seems like it’ll be a major issue for future writers to come up with excuses why they can’t just put the characters where they need to be.

      Only a little more of an issue than transporters already were. How often have writers had to add in an exotic atmosphere or cave ore or ion storm or just enemy shields to justify not beaming out of a bad situation?
