The best about USS Harry S. Truman I only realized right now: It was only commissioned on 25 July 1998, so about a year after her ride into the Baltic Sea in the T2K timeline. This begins to look more and more like a copy-and-paste-thing.

Those are both good catches. I don't recall seeing the first point made in the Alpha comments (although I really didn't follow them that closely), so AFAIK, you were the first person to discover this.
The second point is easily reconciled, though. If the Cold War had continued, the construction of the USS Truman likely would have occurred earlier/faster than it did IRL.
