Gene was also very weird and also would sometimes be very meticulous with scripts, and other times would let writers do as they pleased. Also, at least with TOS, the sort of online pedant nerd culture didn't exist yet. It didn't exist yet because Star Trek basically invented it with conventions and later, usenet groups. So the writers didn't care so much about keeping with continuity because I don't think anyone expected TOS to be as influential and far reaching as it was. It didn't do so hot when it was first airing. It only started gaining massive notoriety in the early 70s after it had already been cancelled.
