Arguably the same for special effects too. TOS is nice in that way, since it feels like the only show that doesn’t go overboard with the pyrotechnics.
Even TNG had support beams, explosions, and an entire welsh quarry rain down from the ceiling, and that just got a bit silly.
Not as silly as literal flamethrowers on the bridge which spew fire when the outside of the ship is hit in any location.
I never liked the whole “we can’t build a ship in which the bridge electronics are even semisafe” let alone believing that there’s thick gaspipes in several locations.
Who designed these?
