The "Burn" is honest to god the worst piece of lore in Trek history, probably in major science fiction history
Just a complete inability to appreciate the scale, continuity, and coherence of a setting, it's like it was made by someone who doesn't like Star Trek and is annoyed other people like it, so decided to burn and salt the setting for the sack of a half-baked climate change analogy
At least they had the decency to chuck it a 1000 years ahead of the main setting's timeframe
Yeah that's about how I felt. It's like someone hated Star Trek's rosy optimism and wanted to destroy it. "What if your spaceship show about a brighter future was actually bad and everyone died in a big explosion." Completely missing the point of the show and the setting.
