I also feel like I hold the Enterprise to a higher standard so it makes some of the culture shock episodes come across differently than DS9.

Like you're here on a diplomatic mission and you're coming off a little snooty and elitist to this species you clearly don't trust or respect. Beverly all but labels the Ferengi scientist in Suspicions "one of the good ones".

DS9 if they're actually insulting each other but still managing to live in proximity to one another it's a little charming because they're working through tensions they can't really avoid. They're not all professionals on a mission of peace, they're people living and working in a culturally diverse and very politically contested place.

And Ferengi pirates capturing the Federation flagship; Rascals, the one where Picard, et al, are turned into children via transporter accident.
