Yeah, why call on quantum computing, which could be a real thing, when you can just wave your arms around and claim to have answers to problems you haven’t submitted yet?
Clearly, this predates the sequel trilogy, because I’ve learned that the computer system that the First Order was using to track the Resistance in The Last Jedi employed precisely this—processors that were contained within a hyperspace field. However, it wasn’t so much for faster data processing, it was so it could easily track anything that traveled via hyperspace.
Still…
As for Star Trek, I can’t actually find confirmation of this supposed detail off-hand, so it may be of questionable canoncity. T-Rex may be premature to praise Trek for it.

They forget to mention the amount of power used to go at warp speeds. A star goes dark somewhere every time they push the button.
