That ship has decidely sailed, with both franchises on the space rocks at the moment.
I strongly disagree with the first three points (not yours, I know) - especially in the TOS era - but I do agree it doesn't quite feel the way I want it to.

"Star Trek isn't this, except when it is" is a pretty shaky foundation for an argument, though.
