He’s served with humans for decades
I think this bears repeating because a lot of people don’t realize it. Tuvok is canonicially a lot older than he looks: he served under Sulu on the Excelsior! I don’t think he was in active service during the entire interval between then and the Voyager era (because why would his rank be so low?), but he’s been around a long time.

Yeah toally, and I don’t even think it’s fair to say any of it based “on faith”. Tuvok lays out several reasons why Naomi thriving is highly probable.
If it was TOS Spock he probably would have said something like “I predict there is a 91.47% chance your child will reach adulthood with strong emotional and physical health” (followed by a “my God, man!” from McCoy).
