To start things off:

I'm sure the first thing that will come to many people's minds is the infamous badging error in TOS:

Some may suggest that since it was caught during dailies and intentionally left in, then it should stay as it always was.

Others may suggest that if modern technology were around back then, it would have been fixed in post; so why not let that happen now?

For that specific example, I'd probably argue for leaving it alone.

I know, right? It's 2023. They should really provide a QR code or something.

It has also been suggested that the average temperature has actually lowered over time due to the average person harboring fewer parasites at any given time.

That, of course, is due to better standards of hygiene, food, and sanitation.

In a world of "humanoid/android/AI/chair/lawnmower explores what it means to be human" it was very refreshing to see "human raised as not-human explores what it means to be human."

It was nice to see them subvert the typical "the entire quadrant/galaxy/universe is at stake" trope.

It's a tie between Mariner and Burnham.

The ship also can't be interested in these ships for their intended purposes, since there's nothing of substance that connects them all-beyond all having disgruntled lower deckers.

Coming back to read this again, it's a bit amusing that the actual answer was right here and was dismissed.
