Ehh. Mighta been born that way (even that’s debatable) but definitely not anymore. Tendi is the ass-kicking heir to a pirate dynasty, Rutherford is an insanely talented and obsessive engineer, Beckett seems borderline unbeatable in hand-to-hand combat and explicitly dodges promotions, and Boimler is Boimler.
The acquisition of wealth is no longer the driving force in our lives. We work to better ourselves and the rest of humanity.
Mariner became an ass kicker at Starfleet. Rutherford turned his genius into something caring and kind. Tendi learned to feel accepted for every part of herself and to use her two halves together. Boimler got bold.
A positive environment for people to learn and grow can transform the mediocre of the mediocre into the best of the best. It drew out the hidden talents within them and turned them into badasses
The Enterprise bridge crew are the best of the best. Lower Decks is a story about the mediocre of the mediocre

Im hoping they figure out how to rotate fresh characters into the cast as the originals fade away (ie Tendi), and let the cycle repeat until canceled
That’s Star Trek as hell
