I hate when people try to write technobabble like that. It has a logic and if you have watched enough star trek it starts to make sense.
Then JJ Abrams comes a long and has Butterbeer Crampleslice tell us life support system is behind the aft nacelles. Even the first few seasons of the new Trek shows did this crap until they brought on science and Canon consultants
There is nothing technochron blorbinator in the Trek lexicon - I’m saying that writing example technobabble like that shows a lack of understanding of the source.
I don’t have any specific examples, but I remember the first 2 seasons of discovery and a little in the first season of Picard getting Trek particles wrong and not knowing systems. It got better once they hired Erin MacDonald and brought on David Mack and a few other novelists to consult on prodigy and I think Picard iirc
edit: Hey look I can play the edit game too - I provided a poorly researched example and explained that technology use not well used in early discovery - I acknowledged that being critical of technology use can be hand waived because its fictitious and apparently that’s not good enough for our combative OP. I also provided sources on the franchise now using specialists to keep track of technology and technobabble, and advised that I am not a “nutrek hater” as our contentious colleague here had to go and attack me personally - check below for the receipts and tax returns!
Probably because most people don’t go around saving copies of these examples. You notice it make a mental note and then forget until someone brings it up again.
I sure as hell don’t go around documenting everything that bothers me about a tv show. In fact I usually do the opposite and try to ignore them.
The Star Trek community is amazing at pointing out obscure references, and letting you know exactly who said it and what episode it was from, all the way back to the 60’s. It blows my mind pretty often lol
So unless someone can point out specific examples…
That said, I wouldn’t be surprised if there are some. Just need to see it. The burden of proof is on the people with these claims.

I’ll be sure to take notes next time I do a rewatch

I’m on your side on this one for sure.
