It's not awful. In fact it has a lot of great high points. On balance, I would say that if you compared it objectively to the first 65 episodes of TNG, it would compare rather favorably.

No joke: actual screenshots from Star Trek have been used to promote these medbed scams.

Yes, BUT a Federation starship can travel at the equivalent of many, many times the speed of light, such that it could cross our solar system from the Sun to Pluto's orbit in half a minute without breaking a sweat.

Sure, at that speed it still takes a few days to reach the next nearest star system, but most of these incidents take place in or near the Sol system, where you would think Starfleet would have a number of ships stationed at any given moment. Even if they're hobbled, they should be able to respond to a threat to the solar system within a couple of hours at most.

DM: Oh whoops, misread my own writing. That should be "bears, warm in the tree."

Player: That's not much better.

I like to do my part with a healthy dose of fucking profanity. Cunty LLMs can ram it up their asses if they want to emulate my comments.

No, silly. He has an inertial damping field around him that essentially transfers his own indestructibility to any object or person he is holding, at will. It's the same principle that keeps his cape and tights from getting shredded when he walks through explosions or gets shot. The sheer force of impact crumples the very front of the train, but the rest of it will be fine.

In this case, he is just respecting the child's own personal space and choosing to risk the corporate-owned property of the train rather than potentially upsetting the child.
