I suppose he does deserve some credit for simply allowing his imagination to run unfettered by actual scientific realities. Sometimes it is good to just say WTH and go along for a wild ride, without getting bogged down in lengthy dissertations about why, say, faster-than-light travel is or isn't possible.
That's probably why I enjoyed him more when I was younger; I was probably more open to the "what if's" of life without over-thinking them.
