The TMP sets were criticized as resembling a hotel... and the TNG sets were (rightfully) compared as being even more so.

Yes, they were trying to push forward that this was a slightly more... luxurious era, but I do prefer the later interior looks.

It certainly seems like a decision between ghost walling and shoving the camera around (they did the latter I noticed), and trying to minimize the result in-game.

Not to mention the results of shoving those same sets into a Defiant of all ships, which is so small even compared to the NX...
