>woman says to Kirk "we've accepted your application for Vice Admiral"
WHAT? Isn't Kirk like 26 years old in this Star Trek? How the fuck can you be a vice admiral at that age? Who likes this shit?

30 actually. But yeah, still to young. Esepcially since I believe Starfleet would probably make him Commodore first.

he's that good at his job.

Why don't they give him a small warp-capable scout ship so he can run around to his fistfights? It doesn't seem like he actually needs a starship.
Why would they put him in charge of an aircraft carrier just because he won a few bar fights?

How can he be 30? He was given the role of Captain at his Academy graduation at 21. Into Darkness was like 2 years later. And Beyond says "were 3 years into our 5 year mission".

Kirk enlists when he's 22. Graduates at 25 or 26.

More likely the Federation is expanding very quickly and just needs more Admirals.
