Thanks for the mention!Basically what @Scott_650 said: it's about the realities of a TV show or movie, not a mistake by the writers/producers.
If I recall correctly, the TNG Technical Manual says that Federation starships are to have an emergency supply of food and water in case of food replicator issues. If the starships have this requirement, I'm sure the shuttlecraft do, too.
Fully agree!It’s a balancing act between over explaining/exposition, detailed world-building, and creating dramatic tension. And with TV shows/movies there’s the 500 pound gorilla in the room - production costs. How much money can a show use to fill in what some viewers see as “plot holes”? Every minute of dialogue, every SFX gag, every additional character, every prop, every set costs money.
Could be done - all it would take is a drilling combo gun, a gunsmith with the right level of FFL and a cubic yard of moneyCombo shotgun pistol. I want one
When I leave my house going to get food or going to my office I carry more items in my pockets than they seemed to carry going down to an alien planet, and I just carry ordinary stuff not all the fancy EDC stuff that some people carry.They also don't carry any supplies on them when going on away missions, like water or some food bars.
Do Starfleet uniforms even have pockets?When I leave my house going to get food or going to my office I carry more items in my pockets than they seemed to carry going down to an alien planet, and I just carry ordinary stuff not all the fancy EDC stuff that some people carry.
