Spoilers under the cut
I have to withdraw a comment from the last review: Raynor's been explicitly demoted to Commander to be Burnham's first officer. And they actually use the term first officer rather than Number One both improvements in my eyes!
It's not emphasised much but there are some new names and face among the bridge bunnies. I noticed one, maybe the relief pilot was Bajoran, implying the crew has plenty of 32nd century born members now.
hmm. Trill symbiote life span very rarely stretches to 800 years. That means Dax who was already several hosts deep is extremely likely dead. Also that Tal has no memories of the time frame.
...Trill has some nasty wildlife. Though the plot is pretty standard test of character thing but servicable enough and takes advantage of Ds9 continuity.
Rayner gets a meet the crew plot, and Saru has an argument with T'Rina. Tbf I found them cuter courting than now as a couple but we are getting more info on the set up on Ni'Var which is interesting.

I did great enjoy Hugh as Jinaal, the actor did a great job of playing him differently.
Rayner is interesting in he's very sure of himself and how he's doing things. He did genuinely get a lot on the crew out of his meetings. It's a both sides have a point thing, I think.
I can't say I've noticed a change in Saru's prosthetics but it's been a while since I've watched previous seasons/
