    I despise the term higher level, probably because I’m a software engineer. High level in software engineering is used to describe the most big picture, abstracted detail view of a design. Deep dive or low level is getting into the nitty gritty. I understand that they mean “discussions at a higher knowledge floor” but just wanted to air my grievance.

    Huh? Yes, I am neurodivergent. Why’d you ask?

      It’s because low level in terms of software engineering is like the foundation of a building, while high level in terms of the skill required to do something is like the top of a podium.

    Of course exploring subspace should be adults only. Can you imagine how irresponsible it would be to hand a Starfleet ship to a bunch of half trained kids?
