    I’m kinda left wondering why it needed to be the Enterprise at all, since all we see is the ship, and no one from it. Is it just to give closure in-universe for it? Why couldn’t it just be “any” mirror universe ship?

    I mean, was Burnham so incurious about mirror Spock that she never checked the records?

      I don’t think that’s far-fetched - I probably wouldn’t be Space Googling the alternate versions of my loved ones.

      As for it being the Enterprise…I guess it’s to give us a bit of closure regarding Spock’s rebellion. Personally, I think it would’ve been fun to have seen the modified version of the Defiant that was teased in season one.
