That is what Allyn was suggesting.  I suggest "Is the appearance of
the planet such a big deal?"  Show me one Star Trek plot that depends
on the world being a duplicate Earth.  I mean the major plot point is
ruined if you don't have it.  Heck some minor plot point is ruined if you
don't have it

There isn't one.  Not in one single case is a duplicate Earth required to
sell the story.  It is an unnecessary complication that does not advance
the plot or significantly add to the story.  One more thing to blow the
suspension of disbelief.  Ergo, drop it.
