Huh, I guess I just mentally interjected her position as Chief to make sense of her being a Commander then. She’s likely the 3rd highest ranking officer on Discovery, and yet she’s just a random engineer lol.
Oh that’s totally understandable. I did too. I’m not saying this like an “um actually” for the record, just hammering home your own point, but in Season 3 onwards she’s third highest ranking. In Season 2 she’s 4th highest ranking and still just a fuckin Commander. Pike, Saru, Burnham, Her. Presumably the Chief Engineer also outranks her by position/time onboard and Dr. Pollard is a Commander too so that knocks her down to 6th… It’s fuckin crazy how many high ranking people are on Discovery. Understandable given the importance of the vessel but holy shit.
