I don't see what the point would be in deliberately setting the show in the era where these characters were prominent and not making use of them. Ditto for the Klingon War that we knew happened around this time.

Well, Sybok is older, and I don't recall it ever being stated that he was raised by Sarek rather than by his mother after they divorced.

That's easy. The transporter involves a computer-directed physical force like a tractor beam that pieces each molecule back by hand, purposefully putting it in the same place relative to the others that it was in before dematerialization.

How old is Tilly, anyway? Her mirror-alt was a starship captain, and it would have taken time to assassinate her way to the top.

Which reminds me of my big problem with the Mirror Universe: if assassination is so common there, there should be lots of people whose Mirror Universe counterparts are dead, and therefore lots of people who were never born in the Mirror Universe because their ancestors' counterparts died before they could have children. Yet whenever we see it in a given show/era, all our main characters conveniently had counterparts who were born.

Also, Tyler was originally a normal human being before his consciousness was put in Voq's body.

Except that's not something Starfleet officers are allowed to do? They cannot just say "ok I momentarily suspend my status" any time they don't like something in order to go do whatever they want. A military organization does not work that way.

Tell that to Worf.

No need to apologize, hard to have too many!
