Blindfold? I’ve used an Oculus and an Index and finding your balance is very easy. I can’t balance on one leg for more than a couple seconds with my eyes closed but have no problems when watching through the headset.

maybe, or maybe there’s some species ism happening at the upper tiers of starfleet. there are SO many species and people in the lower echelons, it makes no sense for the admirals to be so homogeneous. plus the admirals being bigoted aholes would play into how 99% of the admirals we meet are egotistical douches who seem to be working directly against the very ideals starfleet claims to represent

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.
