Not only did I grow up with Star Trek in the 90s, which made me an engineer eventually, I saw all Star Treks series, films, and shows multiple times over the years. I like Strange New Worlds. The new season reminds me of Next Generation, where some episodes were not only about legal cases but moral standards, laws, and the questions of good and bad. It's fine. I understand that if you got used to JJ Abrams, you might not see the scope of it and how the Star Trek IP holder tried to create such a show for 20 years, with multiple attempts... Think Discovery or Picard, which have more in common with JJ Abrams than New Generation or Voyager. But in my opinion, it was about time to take inspiration from Next Generation and Voyager, even if some subtle moral or legal episodes may upset viewers seeking for action and hard sci-fi. It is exactly what the 90s Star Trek often was best at, compared to, say, Star Wars, or newer sci-fi franchises such as The Expense.
