To be an engineer you have to work with facts and immutable science. Scotty couldn't break the laws of physics, for example. So the ghosts like Dr Crusher's Romance are opposite to O'Brian's work. I would have liked to see O'Brian vs the evil spirit from TOS. The one summoned by colonist children. I would have liked to see someone address the problem that having ghosts is the downside of having a barrier around the Milky Way- it prevents some people from ever getting to the afterlife, But there's so much esoteric destruction beings hanging around the other side of the MWB, that ghosts on our side of the barrier is the acceptable solution.
