Seems to me somewhat shortsighted, esp. in the case of Enterprise. Second,
why would you throw away the original film? They only had to keep the 40
min. that ended up in the show. Third, even in TNG era they knew about HD
so they could've done the fx in hd & maybe transferred that to film or
whatever. But I guess Q4 profits are all that matter...
