Fyraltari watches The Clone Wars (2008) for the first time

I think it's that at the high level, Star Wars doesn't really care about the details of the setting's equipment (nor pretend to, unlike Star Trek)

By the time we had 50-foot Abraham Lincoln In Space, I think it was safe to abandon the idea that Star Trek particularly cared all that much about the details of the equipment.

The amount of technobabble suggests attempting to maintain the illusion, though.
