That's Star Trek as hell
Mariner became an ass kicker at Starfleet. Rutherford turned his genius into something caring and kind. Tendi learned to feel accepted for every part of herself and to use her two halves together. Boimler got bold.
A positive environment for people to learn and grow can transform the mediocre of the mediocre into the best of the best. It drew out the hidden talents within them and turned them into badasses
I wanna agree but in this particular case they all had those traits even before the show started (timeline-wise)
Back then Mariner couldn't be a leader because she was still working out her rage issues. Rutherford didn't truly know himself and struggled with his implant. Tendi was ashamed to be an Orion and wasn't usually willing to use her pirate skills. Boimler wasn't bold.
They were all held back in really important ways.
