Are higher-ups from the Federation sent to the Enterprise ever ''not'' dicks who question Kirk's every move?

117: '''The Squire of Gothos''' ''[[1967]] [[January 12]]''
So Trelane has screwed up his era of Earth knowledge due to the speed of light.  Aside from how ridiculous it is that he'd be able to make out such detail from hundreds of light years away, is this another bit of evidence that they had really not yet determined when this series was supposed to be taking place?  There's talk of Trelane seeing the past of 900 years prior, but Trelane is certainly not copying stuff from the 1300s, but several hundred years later.
I like the continuity of Trelane having a salt vampire from ''The Man Trap'' on display.
So energy beings require an easily breakable machine that can  hide behind a mirror to do their fancy tricks?
I like how little change has to come to Trelane's words for him to go from apparently all-powerful to a petulant kid.
