I think it actually works as a prequel ship better than the NX class. You can see the through-line between the Phoenix and the Constitution class, whereas with the NX you have nacelles bolted onto a saucer, which makes no sense as the Phoenix is a stardrive section and nacelles without a saucer. I wish they'd used the whole saucer-growing-from-the-stardrive-section look as it just makes so much more sense from the point of view of showing the evolution of the starship designs.
