Stupid line. At the very least Romulan cloaking devices have been seen by now.

I would say something about the Klingons not having cloaking devices during this part of the series, but of all things, DIS debunks that by having them have cloaking technology during the Fed/Klingon war in a decade ago. So yes, Scotty, what the Hell?

Of course, it all could be just a stupid slip-up, like believing that these classes of ship don't have cloaking technology because it hasn't been observed yet and the cloaking technology believed to be in possession by the Klingons is inferior to what it actually is, but hey, that's me trying to put logic to work.
