Oh, yeah, and in that Star Trek TNJ episode where a couple of crew members
got “out of phase” with their universe, how could they still stand on the
decks of the ship, when they could pass through other objects?

I don’t really like the “it’s only a movie” excuse because it lets the writers
off the hook too easily. A better phrasing might be “because it advances the
plot more effectively,” but even that excuse invites all kinds of
inconsistencies.
