True but where as you could see daylight through the DST Wrath of Khan Enterprise, you couldn't with the AA Enterprise A - I don't know if it was just a different plastic due to the pearlescent quality to the WoK Enterprise.
As for interior lighting then yes there was slight light bleed on the AA Enterprise A and I'm assuming the same will be for this next ship too (similar to the Enterprise E) but it is the issue of external light sources (room lighting, daylight etc..) that made the plastic translucent somewhat that was my big issue.
