I have no problem with this solution. See for example, the other Paris.
Archer comments that Vulcan females specifically have a heightened sense of smell, but in “The Andorian Incident” it is a male Vulcan monk who comments that the smell aboard the NX-01 “must be intolerable.”
You can reconcile this: To Vulcan males we really smell. To Vulcan females, we really, really smell.
so perhaps that’s a cultural practice that fell out of usage between ENT and DIS/SNW/TOS
There's a tendency to treat every alien race as a monoculture, but maybe Spock and T'Pol just came from different parts of Vulcan.
As a human Spock chooses to eat bacon
I actually kind of assumed that it might have been facon. While I can see the Enterprise growing real plants on its five year mission (hence Pike's preference of real herbs), I can't see it breeding real pigs.
T’Pring and Spock decide to take time apart, but we know this isn’t permanent,
The real question is, when T'Pring finds out about Spock and Chapel getting it on, will his excuse be that they were on a break?
