Mean for hundred of years in the future it may be hardish sci fi…they at least use made up words to explain things rather than just saying it works. Though I do agree, it’s no The Expanse (minus the gateways), Altered Carbon (without the consciousness put on a chip), Battlestar (without the teleporting)…wait not sure what the reasoning was. Those were just some of the first hard sci fi hits from Google for me.

Though Star Trek is more out there for sure, in not sure it’s much worse than others…maybe transporters being the worst for the category.
