I think you've hit the nail on the head, though - nobody expects it from most other genre movies. Period. But because Star Trek (TOS) was supposedly founded on this forward-thinking ideal of Roddenberry's, we expect it to be the modern extension of that. And that's not where the writers chose to go, and that's... lame, admittedly. But no more lame than the sole female superhero's 'power' being emotional manipulation. and big guns.
