Overrated! 😡

Ortegas has wielded a sword too. I’d like to see them both wield a bat’leth. For honor you know.

The Federation's Helmsmen quality peaked in the 23rd century.

Its a battle of pilots.. is it a hand to hand battle? And even so somehow sulu gets a sword, when they all had phasers? Seems conceptually backwards to me

Piloting and fencing both require excellent hand-eye coordination. Therefore, it makes perfect sense that Mr. Sulu is the best helmsman. QED
