I've not agreed with some stranger on the internet so much in quite some time.
I really enjoyed some darker content in terms of establishing that humans aren't always the good, wise, enlightened people of the galaxy, consistently The Good Guys in nearly every encounter.
But shifting to that "oh there's a dark side to all the optimism" as the consistent ongoing tone for the show rings wrong as much as the always good guys tone did with older trek.
That's such a good term for early Discovery and pretty much all of Picard.
