I suspect a lot of these don't actually count as getting past the radar. The ESRB definition for a T rating states:

I suspect a lot of these don\'t actually count as getting past the radar. The ESRB definition for a T rating states: \"May contain violence, suggestive themes, crude humor, minimal blood, simulated gambling and/or infrequent use of strong language.\"

The first four games are rated T. So yeah, PottyHumor and the occasional \"damn\" or \"badass\" didn\'t get past the radar, they\'re why the radar gave it the rating they did. Curses cut short definitely don\'t count; the minced ones on the boxes might, since that\'s right out there in the store (same as the titles.) I\'m not sure how strong they are on sex humor so I left most of that alone.

\\\"When was the last time you saw a Real Life soldier wearing an EVA suit as NBC protection in a combat zone? Or a Fed? You don\\\'t, because they are not suitable for these situations.\\\"

[[http://www.phasers.net/2370/evaphase.htm Starfleet makes phasers specifically for use with EVA suits.]] And more: they also have personal forcefields of various types.

http://memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Subspace_bubble - This personal forcefield is expressly used to protect the wearer from the environment.

http://memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Subspace_force_field - A modification of the above idea, these personal forcefields were used to separate the wearers from distortions in time.

http://memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Life_support_belt - These were used to protect the user from environments as extreme as the vacuum of space, so they are obviously immune to NBC attacks. Thus, these two claims...

\\\"The Federation troopers should fall easily to nerve-gas grenades thanks to their lack of environmental protection suits, and stormtrooper armour protects its wearers from nerve gas.\\\"

...are both untrue.

\\\"Then, what do you mean by \\\"two cases\\\"? The link you provide gives only one example, and the site provides a lot more\\\"

Transporters are used EVERY time the crew leaves the ship to go basically anywhere. All that first link you provided does, is pick all of the specific incidents in which transporters have malfunctioned: 55 times in 728 Star Trek releases, so he had to do some SERIOUS hunting. (That also means that he must have known about the EVA suits and personal forcefields: he went hunting through the whole library of Star Trek!) The second link also makes this claim:

\\\"There is no evidence whatsoever that the Federation has had any kind of armoured vehicle in its entire history.\\\"

Because Earth, and the countless other planets in the Federation never had wars in their entire history, right? Wrong. They simply are not important to the narrative. Exploring strange new worlds rarely calls for tanks. Nevertheless, some are mentioned in the background:

http://memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Ground_assault_vehicle

\\\"Beaming the captain away: never watched the movie\\\"

Then you should at the very least look up the scene before daring to speak: Data had to break Picard out, and they escaped in a Reman Attack Fighter they stole from the hangar deck.

\\\"Beaming a bomb into a reactor core? Big energy source; jamming is off the charts by definition.\\\"

You seem to make far more assumptions than you do research. The Enterprise transported an entire Klingon crew off of a battlecruiser leaking radiation directly from the reactor in the episode, \\\"Day of the Dove\\\". No problems with the transporter were even implied.
