Not mentioned in the in the article or interview but DS9 of course also did an episode set in 2024 with no mention of the Eugenics Wars or WW3. Picard did reference its Sanctuary Districts though which was nice.

And yeah this was an issue in the pilot, when Like summarized Earth history. Events spiral from the Second American Civil War into the Eugenics Wars and ultimately World War III.

The Voyager crew visited 1996 as well, and things seemed pretty much fine.

Yeah, I feel like the timeline had been changed for a while, and this episode just put a tidy little bow on it.
