Dude is supposed to be a child prodigy on the ship. He solves problems better and faster than everyone else who are way more qualified and experienced and intelligent at their Stations. He comes off as pretentious.
He also lacks even a modicum of wisdom, despite being surrounded by wise role models. He almost destroyed the Enterprise twice, and he wasn’t even a real member of the crew. When he went to the academy he got some other kids killed because of his lack of wisdom. I get that he’s a kid, and kids make dumb decisions, but Wes made some very large adult sized mistakes.

I was fine with that part. It was the part where they completely derailed his character and he became a time/space wizard that I don’t like.
