It makes no sense to come up with new enemies again and again...Kazon, Hirogen, Suliban, Xindi...there are already enough classic races that should be focused on in order to create a homogenic and compact universe easily accessible for mainstream viewers.

You make an excellent point. The problem that Star Trek had before this movie was made was that it was perpetually going forward in the timeline with new crews in only sightly different circumstances. The whole, "Star Trek is about going forward" crowd failed to understand that going forward for Star Trek, in an existential sense, now meant going back to it's core. Everyone, including the fans, needed to rediscover the elemental treasure Trek used to embody. It had become so raveled that even fans were turning their backs.

So, we don't need new villainous races with different names and the same old motivations. We need to use the ones everyone knows and get back to what they mean, elementally, as allegory or whatever, in contrast to Kirk, Spock, Bones, etc.
