A hypothetical paradox:
What would happen in a battle between an Enterprise Security team, who always get killed soon after appearing, and a squad of Imperial Stormtroopers, who can't hit the broad side of a planet?
Depends. If it's the Enterprise 1701 (no bloody a b c or d), of course the Stormtroopers will hit a junior-grade ensign, just because it *has* to happen, and then Spock will take tricorder recordings as rocks explode all around him and come up with some wildly elaborate theory explaining why the Stormtroopers actually hit for once. Back on board the enterprise Bones will call Spock a moron, say that all his precious theories won't help poor dead ensign so-and-so, and storm furiously off the bridge. Kirk will smile indulgently and say "but enough with these theories! We need--action!" (hits hand very hard into captain's chair bulkhead' sophisticated computer console etc.), have Spock the pilot stud fly him into the Death Star on an immensely dangerous mission to find, rescue, and, yes, kiss Leia. (It had to happen sometime.) Then Sulu wll go mad, replicate a light-saber, and kill Vader. Or something like that.
If it were the modern Enterprise everybody would shoot anyway, to show off their skyhigh effects budget... ...and nobody would die. ...and a previously unknown race would be involved in a conspiracy involvingg the very fabric of space and time. ...and Picard, looking bald, distinguished and very cool, woud open a channel to the Death Star and benignly offer to talk with Vader about this display of aggression which just maybe possibly might be considered an act of war and a just plain bad thing.
