Same. If it were up to me I wouldn't ban them from interacting with it at all, but I'd probably give them a strong guideline to contradict it as little as possible.

I can grok the concept of the Klingon redesign. I didn't necessarily like all that they DID with the Klingon plot in Discovery, but they already had a glaring dysjunction in canon wrt the Klingons and their change of appearance between TOS and TNG. That's a great example of a a prime candidate for spackling, and I think they did come up with a suitably bold plan there - it had to be a pretty momentous event to feel right for a change like that. I'm still not convinced giving the Klingons a THIRD redesigned alien look was the right way to start off there though. Aaaaand also then it kinda felt like they dropped the thread (perhaps out of absent-mindedness, because when I stopped watching it seemed like they had laid out too many large-scale and dramatic arcs at once and couldn't keep track of them all, and then on top of that the tone was all over the place).
