Everything in STO can be earned just by playing, so "pay to win" is incorrect anyway, at least if it is supposed to imply that the only way to get all that stuff was by spending real money.

I say, let us drop the whole notion of P2W existing in STO. If you don't like a given console, fighter pet, ship ability, and what have you, why not just explain how those mechanics affect the game negatively, in your opinion, than just criticizing that there is a real-world-money-way to get it?
