Well, I miss the uplifting vision too BUT
with that said, the Council of 12 in TOS was a bunch of foolish old men too willing to believe in fairy tales to keep their guard up.
TOS, much as I love most aspects of it, had its less than stellar moments. It was mainly our major characters that had nobility of spirit, etc.
Mini, less uplifting, I'll agree, but still a pretty good story (if you skip over over the slower parts like I do) - I won't go into the parts I like and those I don't, but it too had its strengths and weaknesses, LIKE TOS, in my mind.
IMHO.
