Oh, the Vulcans, absolutely. "Wise and ancient race are in fact giant hot messes and also massive hypocrites" is kind of my jam (Time Lords, Minbari, Vorlons, Asari...) plus they have the best outfits.
(Could do with fewer bowl cuts, but one cannot have everything. At least the Picard-era Romulans have transitioned away from bowl cuts and shoulder pads and gone back to their Evil Space Elf roots.)
One of the things Enterprise does really well is dig into the paternalism of Vulcans towards other races, and gives them a proper foil in the Andorians. The seeds were there in "Journey to Babel", but ENT helps them flourish. Because it's ENT, they completely undermine their achievement by depicting the humans as bigoted and xenophobic even before the Vulcan's feet of clay become clear, and Archer takes the Vulcan government's side if it means getting to gaslight T'Pol, but hey. They tried.
