Now we need a scene in SNW where Ortegas decides to play a joke on Spock by calling them marsh melons and giving everyone else (in picturing Chapel, Uhura, M'Benga, and Sam Kirk) a "shut up and make him believe it" look.

I mean... it'd work. There's a lot of loving references to future situations in DSC Season 2 and SNW. Also a lot of tiny references and in-jokes. It really would fit incredibly well. That's also way more heartfelt than my buddies initial headcanon which was Boimler accidentally saying 'marshmelons' while nerding out in front of Spock.

Is this canon?

Partially. The first paragraph is. In Star Trek 5: The Final Frontier, Spock calls them 'marshmelons' and Kirk/Bones don't correct Spock. The part about him on New Vulcan realizing it is hypothetical. For a giggle.

You mean the Marshmelons bit? Spock did get it wrong. Star Trek 5: The Final Frontier. He calls them Marshmelons. The scene in question.

But he must have gotten the joke at least by the time he melded with Bones to transfer his katra. And he never mentioned it after, probably because he realized how much they liked it
