“The USS Kelcie Mae has a single warp nacelle, an underslung deflector dish, and a pointed hull rather than a saucer section. It’s this unusual physical arrangement that makes the ship stand out, at least from a visual standpoint. In fact, it reminds us distinctly of the Olympic-class USS Pasteur as seen in the alternate future of All Good Things under the command of Captain Beverly Picard …”

    I mean, there could be something to say about that, like the name of the ship IU being named after an alien race’s/human important figure (like a Tellarite Kelcie Mae scientist) or a captain of an influential starship. But yeah I agree OOU naming a ship after a person is annoying.

    Edit: IU is in universe, OOU is Out of Universe.

    Edit: I just learned it was named in memory after a huge Star Trek fan who was working on SNW named Kelcie May Sundquist. Rest in Peace.
