EDIT: If you are wondering why I brought up the turbolifts, look at the ship. The engineering section is in between the nacelles, not attached to the saucer.

    California-class ships are weirdly huge. The way people talk about their missions and status , I initially thought they’re meant to be smallish starships, like Intrepid-class, but they’re almost Nebula-class size. Plenty of room inside those pylons for multiple lift shafts.

      One thing they rarely touched on is the ship focus. It seemed that each California-class had a focus that was designated by the division strip on the saucer. So since Cerritos had a gold strip, it was Engineering. The First Second Contact race in season 3 is where we see this in action the best.
