      There is a scene in the fourth season when Tucker is the chief engineer of the Colombia and he is calling for tolerances in the dilithium crystals to be tighter than spec. When an junior engineer challenges him by saying the spec says a higher number, he pushes back saying that he’s actually been running the warp engine and he knows better.
