I'd probably just start the PIC era in 2399. We only see the 2380's in a handful of flashbacks. Prodigy definitely has some PIC connections, but it's far more a continuation of Voyager, and it starts like a year after season 5 of Lower Decks.

Great notes, as always.
In addition to the already-cited references, the Beagle could additionally be a sly reference to Archer's pal Porthos.
Interestingly, Jolene Blalock is credited simply as "Jolene". EDIT: Mike McMahan says this was at her request. https://bsky.app/profile/mikemcmahan.bsky.social/post/3ld3v4usznc2i
Our T'Pol also had some indirect experience with the concept of katra transference when Archer briefly carried Surak's katra.
