Not exactly a troll vote, but it is for amusement. I like the Yoyodyne memes.

Fairly sure Utopia was after the Federation formed so not for a bit still
Because sometimes it is a good call, like if the yards where an option in the vote for the stingray then skipping the yards for the phase cannon would be the correct choice given how much of an upgrade the phase cannons are to the stingray. I do wish we knew what we were building next because that helps with picking options.
Kind of how by picking a patrol ship last time it made sense to pair with the phase cannon. But since this does not seem to be Warp 5 tech my interest is a bit lower to have that for the next ship.

Later on prototypes will probably be better so we can get prototyping on some things done early, but for early on industry will probably serve us better.

I certainly hope so, as the Constitutions were designed and launched some time in the 23rd century - quite a respectable number of decades away from the time period covered in Star Trek: Enterprise, our current focus.
Unless we're getting caught in a time travel episode, which would be just freakin' typical.

Hard decision but I finally came down on the side of an imperfect solution instead of waiting for something better. Better to move toward having enough ships to actually patrol/control human space than to possibly prematurely invest into technology improvements that won't bring us to parity with the larger regional powers.

While coils are tempting, 20 Industry for a relatively tiny light cruiser means that shipbuilding capability will pretty start hitting bottlenecks if we don't address it now.

You are completely right, I don't know where I pulled Constitution from. Especially since Archer commands Enterprise NX-01, with NX LITERALLY being the ship class, and in the name.
Speaking of the NX, can we get a better name for the class than that? Yorktown maybe? (I know the Doylist reason the ship was called Enterprise because of the nuclear carrier Enterprise, first of its kind worldwide, but naming it after the class that Enterprise was a part of in WW2 feels better to me.)

It was named after the space shuttle, which is why the second one was named Columbia.

I think it was actually named after the Space Shuttle in universe. (Which is funny because the Space Shuttle was named after Kirk's enterprise IRL.)
Pioneer class after the Space Probe? Or after a famous explorer Magellan, or Hanno or something?

Was it really? I could have sworn I read somewhere it was named after the carrier, but naming it after a scientific achievement instead of a military one makes far more sense for Star Trek.
The Gagarin-Class, after the first man to enter space.

I think this statement should be more read as "you can't keep selecting torpedo prototypes and end up conquering the Alpha Quadrant with Quantum torpedoes" more than "prototypes don't advance your state of the art". We can absolutely ride the cutting edge of technology in some places, as we did in the last quest.
For example, we would still have gotten the phase cannons if we hadn't picked them on the last project, but they would not have been available for the Stingray class.
It probably works as an add-on to one or both of our maximum and cruising warp factors.

If Yolodyne is going to make exploding Warp Nacelles I want to know before we get to the NX-01.

If we were going to use a Soviet name I'd rather have Korolev.

Korolev is a great choice too, I think I prefer Gagarin over him, but if it ended up being the Korolev-Class I would be happy with that too.
ANYTHING but the NX. 🤢
