Makes me wonder why they didn't make the ship strong enough that it was capable of sustaining 9.9. Also: they've broken the warp barrier like 2 or 3 times and the ship was fine. 🤷🏻♂️
They did; it's called USS Voyager. Its maximum sustained speed was warp 9.975.
It's not super obvious on-screen, but the Intrepid-class was considerably faster than even the Sovereign-class (Enterprise-E), let alone the older Galaxy-class (Enterprise-D).
It was also significantly less massive. And like 50% if of it was dedicated to the warp system.
Think of a better ship to strand on the other side of the galaxy than the fastest conventional warp capable ship.
That Borg ship that can generate its own wormholes.
