Exactly -- that's why I make the comment I occasionally do that the
"W10=unreachable" was an external limit, not an internal one.  It
was a fence put around TNG from the *out*side by GR when he created
what could be called the "TNG universe", not from the inside by the
characters in an episode plot line.
