I bet it didn't survive the refit. Actually, I suspect that's where the "Rec Deck" from TMP ended up, though I have no proof (were the post-refit blueprints ever published?)
I see the love thing as creating a kind of resonance, such that things that resonate together are drawn to one another, and can sync up.
That's how, when he's inside the event horizon, he can jump to the right moments to create the effects he needs to create. Those moments "resonate" with him, and the love between his daughter and him is that resonance.
Say you have an average size house, with a 2-car garage on the side. You decide to change that garage into a small apartment for renting. You need to add a wall or two, add insulation, build up a kitchen area (with proper water and power) and a bathroom.
Imagine how much that would cost you for that single apartment. Now multiply that by, say, 50, to convert a large office building into 50 residential rental units. Even with economies of scale, that's still going to cost millions...
LD works if you just have a general idea of the Star Trek philosophy. Familiarity with all the series just gives you more ways to enjoy it for all the references.
That being said, I'd highly recommend finishing TNG and the watching all of DS9, at least. You can even try interleaving the two at the point where they ran concurrently, though there's not a lot of overlap. DS9 really is worth it.
Unless you turn on "original sound for musicians" Zoom uses AI to filter the audio for voices mainly. I rarely if ever hear any keystrokes or mouse clicks anymore... Lots of other non voice noises get filtered out.
If the deflation is just a market correction after exaggerated inflation (retailers raising their prices more than general inflation to increase their short term subs) then it's no big deal. Prolonged deflation can be bad, as that causes too much saving and not enough spending, which can really hurt the economy and people because of how it takes money out of circulation.
In an economy, the more money can circulate, the more good it can do. I use my salary to pay for for and things, that money then pays the employees of the businesses I went to, and those employees also spent that money, and so on. At each step, both participants normally get a net benefit: I can eat, and the employee can also spend the money they get from me to eat, etc. As long as the money circulates, it keeps doing good. When it stops circulating, due to being put into savings, investments or real estate, it stops doing good (or it does less good). The cycle slows down or stops.
That's why a small amount of inflation (maybe 1-2% ? Not sure what's optimal) is actually healthy, because it puts pressure on people with money to spend it before it loses its value, instead of hoarding it.
