Federation Ship classes

As stated earlier in this thread, the proportions of many STO-ships are wrong. If you look at the Nova-Variants for example... the Quasar has nice pylons that however are too long... the nacelles are too far over the top and unusually broad for a SF-vessel. The Aurora is even worse in that point. While the Quasar has so many angles and edges, the Aurora is round everywhere and has a vanishing thin primary hull while having the longest and worst proportioned pylon/nacelle arrangement ever

I think, since the Enterprise-J made it into canon, the realities of what proportions look 'right' and not went right out the window.

Think of it as the Evolution of the Galaxy class

I will hunt down and kill anyone who views the Enterprise-J as being even remotely related to the Galaxy in any way.

The only relation is the the fact that they both have oversize saucers(not bad on the galaxy)  and they are both alphanumeric iterations of the original 1701 Enterprise.

Exactly.
