Correct, but how that proves that Discovery in the main universe does not exist?
We seen a Garak for an other universe and that does prove that you can have same people , same ships, same uniforms in different universes, this was shown durin TNG.
So the only thing proven is that Discovery exists in a different universe, it is not proven that it does not exist in the main universe.
Let me know if my logic is wrong, we can try and formalize it better using any, exists, implies etc .
- throwpoaster 2y agoInformally: Given that Lowerdecks is an extremely canon-oriented fan-service love letter to earlier shows that are known to be canon (ie, that it demonstrates consistency with obvious canon like TOS and TNG) the hypothesis that it's NOT in the main universe seems to be the one that requires a proliferation of assumptions and therefore more argumentation and data to support.
- simion314 2y agoMy point is that Lower Decks did not prove the theory that Disco is in a different universe. So it is just as much evidence as before this episode that Disco is not in the main universe. In fact tehre is no proof that TNG and TOS and Lower Decks are in the exact same universe and not in very similar parallel universes. Unless if on screen was shown that all 3 have same quantumm signature. I think it would make sense Disco is different universe , would make the fans happey too , but this episode brings no proof for it , though in a trek form or reddit I would let the fans to enoy this "fake news" , here or in Daystrom subreedit I am though expectic more logic.
- ruthmarx 2y agoYour logic is spot on. People trying to argue Discovery is in another universe are not being rational, but emotional.
