The Ba'ul were nasty looking creatures. Too bad they didn't save them for another more serious war episode with a completely different backstory. Instead, they were a bunch of Rainbow Brites and gave into the big bad human wishes. (and offered plug n play jail cells )
So now consider the episode and what actually happened.
Two species that have evolved to the point that they've switched places in the predator/prey relationship on a planet.
And in comes Burnham and company to change their entire evolutionary process within one visit.
They didn't just piss all over General Order One, they lit it on fire
You can see the little transparent thought bubble over Anson Mount's head - This ain't the Star Trek I signed on for Where are the hot green skinned girls? Where is my bridge crew that contains at least 50% of REAL men? And how come I don't get to do that move where I clasp both hands and smack people down on the back with it?

The first Christmas we spent without my Mom we had a little toast before we ate (none of us were drinkers, milk, water etc).
My brother said some stupid shit, I added - To absent friends...and mothers
I think the absent friends part is a Star Trek saying.

From a review on the last episode
For all Pike’s decency, his choice to knock on their front door to ask if they know anything about the signal is the most privileged-white-dude move he’s made yet, and practically everyone on the bridge knows it, from the looks on their faces; anyway
I'm telling you, most reviewers of this show (the positive glowing reviewers anyways) all seem to be feminist SJW's and they read something into every little thing on this show
