    You make some valid points. I have to respond to this one though:

    The video calls from other ships completely block their view of their environment, which is usually pretty dangerous.

    You don’t navigate a ship that size by sight. They use sensor data and navigational computers for piloting. Plus they’re usually stationary when they have those conversations.

      To add on to your comment:

      They have other bridge staff monitoring the sensors and bridge staff notify when there are incoming enemy vessels or incoming fire
