    Damn it, but thank you for being that guy, lol

    I even questioned myself before submitting that title, did a quick google, and figured either that was the helm or both stations up front are collectively referred to as the helm.

    The results that misled me…

    …now I have to stealthily edit the title.

      Yeah, there are various episodes that establish that different functions can be transferred to different bridge stations over the course of TNG.

      I think when Data is piloting the ship from his old seat in PIC S3, that is what is happening, in universe.
