A "meta-argument" against all future arguments for God's existence ?

others were simply capable craftsmen. And there were even some extremely creative and free thinking people, who poured that part of their nature into the project.

Well, I have no idea what the crew and writers complain about over beer after a long day in the Star Trek factory. Maybe they idealistically want to do more. But the result is on the screen to see. 

I think it's likely that anybody who wants to work on it in the first place already buys into the ideology and values that Star Trek (in fact most of Hollywood) has always had. If you didn't like the message, you wouldn't go to work there. So we're on the third or fourth generation now of people who were propagandized by the message, who believe the message, and who recreate the message with ever-improving special effects. 

Chomsky points this out about the news media. Most of the smiling propagandists on CNN actually believe what they're saying. They grew up in a circle that believes it and they have no trouble staying within that bubble. 

I'm not just picking on Star Trek. Any pop, made-for-money media will have the same standard subtexts, tropes, and methods. To be popular at all, a media product has to be about 98% repetition of what came before, with just enough original to catch the eye.

Limitations don't always stifle creativity.

Granted. But it depends on what the goals are, what the limitations are, and, of course, who's paying the bills.
