Yeah I met with Ron “neo-BSG” Moore for a Cornell in Hollywood lunch once and it was pretty clear he came from a Navy family and BSG was a way to resolve his old “Is Starfleet the Navy or NASA?” in favor of “The Navy”

In how Callie only signed up to get paid through dental hygienist school, in that episode where they address how officer pilots outrank crew that know what to do out of a cockpit (and ultimately endorses the chain of command as good, then scared civilian fragging followed by lying cover-up that maintains honor narratives as better)

How in direct contrast to previous Trek, in the pilot three times (venting the fire, jumping away without the non-jump vessels, firing on the ship that didn’t respond) he pointed out how the sign of a real worthy leader was NOT risking the whole mission to save a few lives
