There's no real future and no real past. Everything can be easily manipulated, so why should I even bother concerning myself with these people if "time travel" can correct everything?
The Abrams produced "Kelvin Timeline" has taken it a step further and despite a good cast, I have no intention of ever purchasing these movies On Demand, streaming, Blu Ray or watching in a theater.
Maybe the new series will live up to the standard that Gene Roddenberry set in the 60's but it's doubtful.

That's odd reasoning considering time travel was used several times in TOS and the slingshot of IV was first in an original series episode...
