By that scale you can have a lot of political and even interplanetary nationalism stuff going on.
Heck, what if we had it be like a Klingon god or a god from another species I mean it should make no different to a star fleet crew.
Well if they encounter a klingon god they'd be safe to assume it was an imposter. Everyone knows the klingons killed their gods long ago.

Yes, because it not like it a normal thing for starfleet ships encounter beings who were thoughts dead and really weren't.

It is a modern retelling of the ancient story of the dangers of the unknown, how chaos lurks in it, and what happens in your world when chaos embodies itself and comes looking for you. It's no coincidence that the Xenomorph is a very exotic looking dragon, nor that the preceding life stages of it are two of Mankind's biggest phobias, spiders then snakes.
The fear of snakes and spiders is much more culturally specific than universal to mankind

Also honey badgers are pretty scary but you don't see their iconography much.

Partly got your wish, John de Lancie has signed up for Picard season 2. (Hopefully gives Picard the means to destroy the JJ verse!)

But here's the really important question: will there be a midget with a cowbell?
