Lol.

I think they were going for whiny and annoying with his character. He started out as a science nerd, not an officer or in the military.

One could complain about the inconsistencies of the technology, holographic interfaces, etc, but meh whatever I want it to look cool, it doesn't bug me if it doesn't fit 100% in the timeline.
Yeah, I'm learning to ignore the technology changes.

You could argue that the slick jewellery buttons and crappy looking screens that are plainly cut out drawings in TOS as a massive leap forward in human interfaces.

And they found out that holographic emmittors caused testicular cancer and porn addiction and outlawed them.
