That would be my biggest complaint, is making her the mary-sue of the show. Would rather see the other characters get some more time in the spotlight.

Throughout all of Star Trek though literally the entire hero ship has has a "Mary Sue" issue going on. It was always the Enterprise that saved the day, always the bridge officers who solved the problems despite a crew of thousands.
There were plenty of characters too that had that sort of situation, how many times did they magically have the solution that half the crew and an advanced computer system couldn't come up with.
Anyhoo...I'm thinking this season will be good fun. Being 900 years into the future means even actual canon events from other shows can be messed about with legitimately as they would be almost mythical in some respects to people of that time period. How many stories of Earth's past from 900 years ago are known down to their tiniest details without a lot of speculation and guesswork?

Well here's the thing. In season 1, when people got started right away accusing Burnham of being a Mary Sue, it wasn't true. She was the focus character and took up a lot more screen time throughout the season in a way ensemble shows (like Star Trek usually is) don't do. Despite that, for as many times as she's blamed by other characters for being at fault for whatever, it wasn't actually her fault.
Come season 2, and everything literally IS her fault. She's not just the center of attention, she's the center of the plot. Time literally does revolve around Micheal Burnham. I wouldn't say that makes her a Mary Sue, but it is a mark against the story. There's a difference between the protagonists driving the plot, and every single action taken in the universe being related to them. Our heroes rising to the challenge the same way anyone else could vs bearing some special quality no one else has that the fate of the universe rests upon.

The lore bits are nice.
