One definitely gets the sense that there are so many senior executives at Paramount and CBS Studios giving notes as they seek to differentiate the shows that the creators’ ideas get muddied.

Considering the production issues that Discovery had behind the scenes, I wonder if it might be the opposite. The show's creatives are being hampered by the executives, who would prefer that they kept to the standard "Star Trek Brand" instead. It's happened before, with both Voyager and Enterprise, and the current model of the show is meant to be "A Trek for Everyone", which would be difficult to pull off if all the shows kept to the same sort of formula.
