Audiences weren't the only ones perplexed by the Uhura/Spock romance in JJ Abrams' Star Trek reboot. Nichelle Nichols herself found the concept implausible.

    I wasn’t particularly perplexed. It was a parallel reality. I wasn’t particularly perplexed by an evil spock with a beard.

    I wouldn’t read much more into it than JJ Abrams not being a Trek fan in the first place

    If you want a conspiracy theory, then giving Spock an on-screen hetero love interest sabotages the long tradition of Kirk/Spock fan slash. However, I don’t think JJ Abrams would have thought about that not having been a Trek fan in the first place
