I can't speak for everyone else, but I don't really buy into either school of
technology. I kind of moosh it all together and use what tech I like at the
moment. :^)
Probably there aren't more Star Trek MOCs because the ships are just TOO DANG
BIG. Oh sure, you can build shuttles, or a workbee like I made at Wayne's house,
but Wayne made a minifig scale bridge to the Enterprise (no bloody A, B, C or D)
Here's a pic of that:

Now, that's just what's in the bump on top of the saucer. The whole saucer would
fill a room. The Enterprise D would fill a house.
Still, I wouldn't mind seeing someone make a smaller rendition of one of the
Enterprises with some sort of interior spaces. I have nowhere near the necessary
parts to even attempt it myself.
