This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
Between Star Trek and Star Wars, I'd classify Wars as feather pillow level soft. Star Trek at least makes an attempt to explain things with make-believe science.
Star Wars has princesses, heroes, evil empires, and forgotten magical powers; it's heroic fantasy but in space instead of a pseudo-mediaeval setting. I guess that's why people call it "Space Opera" rather than sci-fi!
Star Wars is a space opera fantasy western.
It is decidedly and deliberately NOT sci-fi
