But remember, warp drive slowly tears the fabric of spacetime in high traffic areas.

In 2370, the Hekaran scientist Serova discovered that the use of conventional warp engines caused damage to the fabric of spacetime. The Federation Council imposed a speed limit of warp factor 5 on all Federation vessels in all but extreme emergency cases, such as medical emergencies. (TNG: "Force of Nature", "Eye of the Beholder")

This limit was quietly done away with in later seasons, hopefully because they found a solution and not due to blind disregard for the universe.
Other than that, living in the Star Trek era would be totally awesome. I mean: replicators, warp, transporters, tricorders, and not to forget, Seven of Nine.
