Discovery did give us a glimpse of the future but then handicapped it with a lack of dilithium. I imagine it has to be tough to make interesting stories showing believable advancements of a completely imaginary and already well advanced society compared to our own. I do wish we could depart from Kirk/Spock like TNG, DS9, and VOY, whether they make it more advanced or not. It all feels too familiar to the neverending Skywalker nonsense that was played out after the first three films.
