For me, it was Archer using any, and every, excuse to talk down to T’Pol. I’m not sure who was writing his character, but I would’ve preferred if they’d gone more towards Picard (TNG) or Pike (SNW), and less Kirk/Sisko. As the first human explorers in that part of space, I would preferred more reverence for what they were accomplishing, and less whining about Vulcans. The other characters were were way more enjoyable to watch
TNG and SNW captains brought/bring a sense of awe with their exploration of the unknown, Archer just seemed like a kid who’s parents told him he couldn’t have ice cream for dinner
