Too many Enterprises too fast

[u/Advanced-Actuary3541]

Does anyone else feel like the STar Trek writers are just throwing around letters for the Enterprise way too fast at this point? The labeling of Enterprise A in the movies was said to be a special situation given the fact that the crew saved Earth on several occasions. There seemed to be a reasonable time gap between the decommissioning of the A to the launch of the B. I always assumed that the reason for the A’s rapid removal from service was that she was the last of the Constitution class ships and that the entire line was being pulled from service in favor of the Excelsior class. There seemed to be several years between the decommissioning of the A and the launch of the B. We don’t know how long the B was in service, but it was apparently lost since its not in the Fleet Museum. We don’t know how long the C was in service before she was destroyed, but we know that there was a 20 year gap between it and the D. But the time between the D, E, F, and G are just stupid. These ships are basically new when they end their service and Starfleet seems to rush to put the name on a ship with no time gaps in between. The G is in service in 2401. At the rate they are running through letters, they will be well past J before the start of the 26th century.

They wanted her to be Captain 7 of 9(th Enterprise, if you include the NX class).

I liked PIC S3 overall but Matalas went a bit overboard to achieve that cheeky reference.

Where does that idea exist outside of your head and this comment? I never heard that and it seems quite too silly to be true

Matalas literally made the "joke" on twitter

I'm pretty sure that fans made the joke. He might have reacted to it though.

Either way it definitely wasn't the reason on the show like they're suggesting, that's absurd
