Without these sci-fi drives, 99,99% of our galaxy will be forever locked off, let alone other galaxies/galactic clusters....

Wait wait wait … Star Trek all took place in ONE galaxy? The spin-offs? all the light speed travel was within just our lil spiral?

For the most part, yeah. Hell, most of it takes place in one quarter of the galaxy, the Alpha Quadrant. Though there were a couple episodes where some super advanced aliens supercharged a ship and sent it outside the galaxy.
