It is kind of funny, and by funny I think I mean interesting, the shape a conversation can take depending on the forum it takes place in. Some people aren't interested in one forum while they might visit another repeatedly, almost neurotically every 5 to 10 minutes or so.
We all know that a ship carrying the Enterprise name is going to have a huge effect on PvP. Whether or not the time and effort is taken to carefully balance out this beast is going to determine the state of the game for months. PvE can't get much easier, and that makes me sad, so anything better than what is currently available is only going to make PvE more mundane.
The thing that worries me about it is the number of people asking for all universal stations on it in other threads. At that point why have different ships at all in the game or PvP at all. Everyone will be flying the "flagship" (Shouldn't there be just a few of those?)
Except the KDF of course.
sort of off topic:
I notice there has been a slow creep in universal stations showing up on Fed ships. Which removes the major difference between Klingon and Fed. I find that disturbing given that Fed's have more ship designs anyway to pick from.

There's going to be far more PvE advocates for super ships, particularly on Fed side. They want to be the "hero!" that singlehandedly saves the day, and they need a very powerful ship to do so!
The least we pvp'ers can do is have a voice of our own in this forum. Just in case a Dev gets bored / bold and decides to browse through and see just how their PvE designs affected balance in pvp.

I thought the nebula is the only one currently with a universal slot?
