The whole SW universe is a history of contradictions.

Now explain mitichlorins...

It's a film franchise that isn't 100% internally consistent. Quelle surprise!

We don’t talk about the midichlorians, Fozzy.

Can you explain domain why all the planets Kirk visited were really similar to the sets of films the studio had recently made?😉

Yes. In fact it was often the same precise set. Including the obviously polystyrene boulders.

More baffling is the fact that there were several parallel earths in travelling range of the Enterprise.

Roman Empire, Nazis and Chicago Gangsters were apparently model civilisations that were chosen.

And only one of those was parallel evolution apparently.

That was the Roman Empire wasn't it? Everything else was due to corruption by Starfleet renegades, despite the fact that the Kilingons Vulcans and Romulans had been starfaring races for centuries before humanity got onboard and didn't have a Prime Directive.

See none of either backstories makes sense, but they're both great entertainment, right?

Nah, ST is entirely plausible.

Doesn't require Magic to make it work like Luke 'Harry Potter' Skywalker.

Except for the The Magicks of Megas-Tu ( memory-alpha.fandom.com ) of course.

The Force is just as scientifically plausible as Warp Drive and Betazed telepathy, from a certain point of view.

Although 892-IV was indeed the example of parallel development ( memory-alpha.fandom.com ), it was still corrupted by interference.

Less explanation was given to why the planet in 'Miri' was identical to Earth in landforms and topography. memory-alpha.fandom.com

Only if you believe in midichlorins.....
