Remember Futurama's "The Day the Earth Stood Stupid" episode? Well, Discovery's writers seem to have been stupified, there's no other explanation for this script.
Your best bet: Watch last week's "New Eden" again. Directed by TNG's Frakes, the previous episode had a decent story and genuine mystery of the Trek amongst the stars.
As there's now proof that Discovery could be less, eh, Discovery-ish, this makes the real thing even harder to bear.
