It is not exclusive to new shows. TOS, TNG and VOY all do the exact same thing. Every one shows Vulcans being emotional in some form. They're not emotionless beings. They have stronger emotions than humans do. Stuff slips out occasionally so no, being passionate does not violate it's own lore.
Also its pon farr but vulcans do not need to be going through pon farr to mate with someone else. Pon farr merely forces it. Also, you say Strange New Worlds does it. Only person you could be talking about is Spock who isn't Vulcan but half human and half Vulcan.
I fail to see how T'Pring is relevant to the conversation here. She shows admiration towards Spock and a familiarity with him but that isn't new nor does it break canon. We've seen that with Spock on TOS and Tuvok on Voyager. Sarek is irrelevant to the conversation at hand. He was not the only example in TNG of Vulcans displaying emotion or talking about them.
I'm not appreciative of the extremely dismissive one-liner response. If you want to have a discussion about it then I'm open to that but I'm not if you're just going to respond with some sort of "Gotcha" response that ignores half of what I said.
Well, given the random downvote and refusal to respond, I guess I have my answer on whether or not you want to have an open/honest discussion. Disappointing. I thought better of you. That behavior also doesn't belong on this community.
We're trying to be open, accepting, positive and willing to have a discussion. Dismissal and random downvotes don't belong here.
Take care and I wish you the best but you might need to re-evaluate a bit and try to stick to the atmosphere we're setting here on the server.

He is half human, but T'Pring isn't. In TNG they show Sarek displaying passion, but he's at the end of his life and has a medical condition.
