"Old money" vs. "New money" is a particularly American concept, though.
AFAIK California doesn't require a license for ebikes.
Throw in the fan theory that Disney's version takes place thousands of years in the future.
They also put children on the ship, so maybe the admiralty isn't so smart.
On the other hand, the few things they do know about him includes that he disobeyed orders cancelling the Farpoint mission, declared red alert in drydock, and that he has conversations with letters of the alphabet.
You mean like... speaking to someone in the same room? While they're looking at you? With their eyes?!

From the phrasing and context, I was expecting something else when I clicked.
Don't forget the Snake game.
The thing that gets me about this episode is how it compares to All Good Things.
In AGT there's a scene where Picard is in the past on the bridge and he's ordering them into the anomaly, an act which seriously threatens to destroy the ship, and for which he gives no good reason. The crew reasonably objects, and Picard launches into an unpersuasive and platitudinal speech about how awesome the crew is. And the crew goes along with it.
Contrast this with the scene in Allegiance where "Picard" orders them into the anomaly, an act which seriously threatens to destroy the ship and for which he gives no good reason. "Picard" assures them with an unpersuasive and platitudinal speech. And the crew mutinies.
While it's true that in Allegiance the crew were already suspicious, it's also true that in the AGT scene the crew didn't know Picard well enough to give him the benefit of the doubt.
Just don't buy stuff you don't need. 100% savings every time.
I have no sympathy. Companies that require class action waivers and mandatory arbitration clauses don't get to complain when thousands of people file arbitration claims simultaneously.
