A friend pointed out how it was funny that a Captain had to yell down to an engine room for more power, as if it were the 19th century ship with cone-voicepipes.

The technology of Star Trek has always been dated. We had advanced computer controlled weapons systems in the 1940s and 1950s.

Even the latest Start Trek movie releases demonstrate technology that is behind existing state of the art in weapon systems.

Some was ahead of it’s time, e.g. diagnostic beds in sick Bay.
I only watched the first Star Trek “reboot” movie - that was more than enough. If they can’t do it right they should let the franchise rest in peace.
