I wish they had left the 32nd century as a "Discovery - only". After the jump to the future it felt like the show had no stakes. Everything felt disconnected.
It feels like an easy excuse for the writers to pull just about anything out of their asses, "because it has been so long" and "tech has evolved exponentially".
SNW proved that there was a lot more to explore even in the 23rd century. So much could have been done with the fallout of the Dominion War in the 24th.
But it's all up to the writers. If they're good the show can be good.
