This seems like a very recent laptop.

Could MBR be your problem somehow? Maybe it needs to be a GPT table instead.
I would say testing is okay - I have used the same install on my desktop continuously since early 2022. It's the same as usual - some packages might disappear during transitions and then reappear, like FreeCAD. When that happens, I just use the Flatpak. I think the only major issue I've run into with current testing was some of my systems got borked during the time_t64 transition and I had to chroot in and fix them, but that got sorted out months ago and is probably the only huge issue I can think of.
Weird. What distro is on it, what program did you flash it with, and does it show up in the file manager on another machine?
Have you seen the VOY one they did as well of the salamander Tom Paris episode?
TAS really is (besides maybe that weird stuff with the inflatable Enterprise, giant Spock, or that iffy bit of chauvinism in "The Slaver Weapon") a great TOS continuation. I loved The Lorelei Signal for giving Uhura and Chapel the opportunity to be girl bosses.
On a bit of a tangential note, I hope we get some excuse to see young April. It kind of makes me sad that STA is going to be set in the 32nd century and not the peaceful yet mysterious 2290s-2330s period. I feel like you could have just depicted academy life without all the "save the universe drama" (okay, maybe just a little, but not every episode) while following the late careers of a few officers like April or Sulu.
Especially the beginning part.
I have basically the same laptop (it's an E16, but with the same CPU - it's just the 16-inch version of your laptop). Make sure you press enter, press F1 to go into BIOS, then go into Security > Secure Boot and enable "Allow Microsoft 3rd Party CA". That worked like a charm for me.
If you're still having problems, try writing down the steps you have taken (down to the key combinations; some pictures would be nice as well). I should have all the same settings menus.
Don't worry, though, you've made a good choice; I've been loving my Thinkpad E16.
Wasn't that TOS, not TAS?

Boot off the live boot disk and, after mounting everything, chroot into your Fedora install. Then try rebuilding your initramfs (I don't know the command for Fedora, but I'm sure it's simple enough).
Next day: there's a mek'leth jammed where your doorbell used to be.
Could you record a video showing the steps you take to try to boot the USB?
Also, maybe pictures of any BIOS settings. I want to see if I can replicate the problem on my laptop.
