The only other male bridge officer I can remember off hand is Spock, right? What a massive drift. "Can't get used to it so therefore WOMEN EVERYWHERE"

Another reason to love SNW. As if one was needed.

Interestingly, this scene technically isn't part of continuity because "The Cage" as a whole technically isn't part of continuity, only the parts that made it into later episodes, like "The Menagerie," are. Remember, "The Cage" was a rejected pilot that only got released later on as a bonus, like a collection of deleted scenes. "Where No Man Has Gone Before" was the show's accepted pilot.

That is incorrect. The entire episode was made fully canonical with a Season 2 Discovery episode. The episode opens with a flashback including various scenes from that episode. The entire episode revolves heavily around the events of that episode as well.

But I like having a reason to pretend sexist Pike didn't happen.
