I mean...if the system accommodated that appearance it would have been one of the best designed systems in the world. There are a lot of edge cases here.

It's really the most prescient episode of Star Trek ever made.

If I remember correctly, that time point in those double episodes was a turning point in Start Trek lore that changed Earth's history for the better.
