Federation Starship Datalink: Brand new look, fresh minty scent, same great taste!
What about the people in bunks that were shown in ST:IV they were thrown out of their bunks when the ship got hit with fire... I'm sure they were in PJs?

Homer: I'm gonna miss Springfield. This town's been awfully good to us.
Bart: No, it hasn't, Dad. That's why we're leaving.
Homer: Oh, yeah. [pokes his head out the window] So long, Stinktown!

Don't kill me, I'm charming!
It was still typical in TNG "Lower Decks" for four junior officers to bunk together in the same quarters, even if those were a bit more luxurious than in "Flashback". So in that respect, there's no problem with the Voyager episode.
Then again, Valtane was NOT a junior officer in the movie, but a commander of some sort, and apparently the chief science officer. Probably this Dmitri guy Tuvok saw die was the less successful twin brother of Cmdr Boris Valtane, Excelsior CSO. The real Cmdr Valtane was still alive at the end of the movie - or then his crewmates did a good job at holding his body upright for the final "group photo" of Sulu and crew (when the two ships part and Kirk steers his vessel to that suicide run into the Khitomer sun...).

Was Abdulah Boul Boul Ameer."
