It's simple...Berman and Braga hate TOS
By Nuclearmothman

That's the only explanation I can think of for having Troi and Riker show up on "Enterprise."

The basic premise of a character "looking back" to some historical moment (and what could be more historical in the Star Trek universe than the formation of the Federation?) is certainly valid, and it would have been if it had been from the perspective of the original series, not its spin-off TNG.

How hard would it have been to tell the same story, except have an older version of T'Pol aboard the NCC-1701 at her launch in 2245, (a la "Admiral McCoy" in the TNG pilot) and have her talk to a young Vulcan (Not to "spoil" anything, but yes, I'm talking about Spock)? The idea that T'Pol may have influenced Spock to join Starfleet would have been a more fitting and appropriate "link" between "Enterprise" and TOS, and the right note to end the series on, with the founding of the Federation, and the "origins" of one of Star Trek's most popular characters.

But NOOOO...Berman and Braga have to screw the pooch and show their hatred of TOS yet again with this lame excuse of a TNG episode.
