MODERATORS
Probably a smart and distinctly SNW move to use all the Vulcan stuff for comedy.
To be fair to other series, plenty of them tapped into the Vulcans' potential as comedy straight men. This is arguably why we had the recurring conflict of goofy alien Neelix vs. Tuvok on Voyager. Lower Decks doesn't see a lot of them, but gets a lot of mileage making fun of their uptight nature in Wej Duj. TOS even had some fun poking holes in Spock's facade-- just look at the end of Amok Time.
But yeah, it's kinda crazy seeing the shenanigans come from the Vulcans themselves in this show.
