So I made this complaint over on the Star Trek community ... but others might have some different thoughts here.
Any Trek fans tired of the reboots / prequels (and yes, even hard sequels)? All Trek since Voyager has been either a prequel or a had sequel (Picard). From Enterprise, through the Kelvin films to SNW ... there hasn't been a new Trek without at least Spock or a member of the Soong family making an appearance.
The big exceptions being Lower Decks and Prodigy ... which are animations that are either targeting children or trying to be a comedy ... which says I think (and I like Lower Decks, don't get me wrong) all you need to hear about how risk-averse modern star trek productions are to trying something new (compared to the TNG era and of course TOS).
Most of Star Trek is [space] politics, and most of the people who own Star Trek don't care about [space] politics. They want a marketable good to become the DC to Star Wars' Marvel
