Interesting read, but misleading title, as usual. Clickbait, I assume.

"Star Trek creator inspired by Robert Heinlein's vision" might be equally valid, albeit less provocative.

I find as time goes on, I have less and less patience for those titles/links that I consider part of the "clickbait" school of writing. Although I've found that often, as in this case, the title has little to do with the actual content.

. . . which is why I tried to make the thread title more accurate than the linked article's title.

Yes, the article title doesn't have a lot to do with the article. Not a bad article overall, though it makes too much of the nuclear weapons in SPACE CADET.
