IIRC he acknowledged it was well-made for what it was.
Honestly, I think he just realized he had no choice.
The conflict between Roddenberry and Meyer is pretty well-known, but I agree it would be…interesting to see the original documents.

Roddenberry from what I’ve read in multiple places sounded like a huge asshole to me, and nowhere near the ‘Great Bird of the Galaxy’ he liked to self-label himself as. Now yes, a very talented asshole, whose vision started the franchise, and certainly who put in much work on TOS (along with many other talents), but nevertheless a real PITA on a personal level who wound up burning most of his bridges.
Point is-- if Meyer lost his cool with him as a young guy, I wouldn’t be very surprised.
