I agree that Brannon and Braga made a mistake by going out of their way to ignore Trek canon, but April was the first captain of NCC-1701, not one of the preceding vessels named Enterprise. I'll grudgingly give them a pass on that point.
BTW, have you seen this stuff?
Ahh yes, New Voyages. If Trek ever makes it back on TV, I hope they give it to those guys to produce.
