I have to confess that, as a HUGE fan of TOS, I did watch a lot of it. I’m embarrassed at how many of those episodes I’ve seen. The one with Scottie in the buffer was fascinating and showed how ridiculous the whole transporter thing is. The ramifications of him being able to do what he did are HUGE.

I remember one also where they used the transporter to “filter” a person’s signal to prevent a terminal disease from passing through.

i.e. if hospitals had these, you could simply step into the transporter with a deadly disease, and come out the other end without it.

Yearly tune up....step in then step out with diseases gone, arteries “de-hardened”...Pectorals “rehardened” and the grey hair all gone along with the cataracts and the astigmatism. They are saving that for Star Trek 31st century:The Temporal Cold War!(sarcasm, of course!)
