agreed, the Enterprise always stops the warp engine in front of another ship's debris. Ton of stories about manouvers with pilot names, tons of situations where the ship weapons doesn't work so they have to resort to diplomacy, and we've always looked at this world from the perspective of one ship. I'm pretty sure the rest of the captains are more Jellico than Picard

The admirals all certainly are, though maybe that's because of survivor bias, they shot first and asked questions later so they survived. Whereas most Picard-like captains and their ships get destroyed because you have to have an excellent crew to overcome what happens when your morality dictates your actions.
