All great points, however I believe the answer for the discrepancies could be that Larson couldn't get Hatch and Benedict back for 1980. Setting the show 30 years ahead gave him the opportunity of getting a believable storyling. Kent McCord as a grown up Boxey aka Captain Troy and Barry Van Dyke as Dillon. I always wondered about the origins of Dillon. Could he have been Starbuck's and Cassi son?( Hatch changed the character to Dalton in the novels.) Could he have been Cain and Cassi's lovechild?
