* The half-a-dozen Stewardesses/prostitutes seems a surprisingly large number for such an environment. Then, again, having a guild of brothels seems like it'd be probably one of the first things set up when the sheer staggering ennui of the environment sets in.
** The philandering, too, though that may be ValuesDissonance from it being the Space Sixties.

* The idea there's a social dissonance between the Upper Decks and Lower Decks seems weirdly arbitrary given they're all desperately necessary to run the ship. Then you have to think about vital jobs like garbage men, farmers, and other groups which don't get much respect. There's also the fact this is from the 1960s where communism was horrific, so OF COURSE they want to establish an "Elite" to separate the upper class from the working class.
* Six hundred people seem a small number to have such vicious cliques and politicking as Viondra is shown to engage in. Then you remember the sort of pettiness which goes on in stuff like high school. The smallness and their environment would actually encourage the pettiness as well as grandstanding they engage in.
