The Borg.
A "species" that has conquered a plethora of species, added those to their own.
Oddly, in the later Star Trek series, the Borg were altered in various of ways, toned down, even entirely wrong implemented.
Take the Battle of Wolf 359: Jean-Luc "Locutus" Picard enters the area of Wolf 359, eradicating a whole fleet, 39 vessels, about 11.000 lives lost.
Hold on here, although the Borg had a more important target, they would not miss this very opportunity (and oh, an opportunity it was!!!) to assimilate a complete fleet, and thus improve their chance to success!
The fact they did not, is an incredibly faulty way of progressing the story.
Don't get me wrong here, sure, we Humans HAD to win, I mean, come on, we ARE invincible.
The Hero MUST win.
But, this would in fact not just be incorrect, it's in fact a blatant lie as the stroy progressed.
Think, a single cube can hold up to 130.000 drones.
In ONE single transport, they can beam over 5.000 drones.
Now, let's say, they beam 2.500 drones to all ships, what ship can deal with such an invasion?
In effect, the loss of crew would be about 8 to 12%, the rest would be effectively assimilated, and all ships added to the Collective.
Outcome?
Well, that is fairly obvious, no?
This was known to Jean "the Locutus" Picard, but he simply ignored this.
Odd, since, adding that Fleet to the Collective, would have given them info beyond info, not just about the Human tactical data, but of Klingons, of about all species and factions involved in the conflict.
This would outweigh for sure, just the attack on Earth.
Having tactical advantage over the entire Beta quadrant, how could it NOT be more important?
And "The Loc" for SURE would have seen this advantage.
So... what hapenned?
Why were the Borg not implemented as they actually are?
Not to mention, The Borg have Time Transwarp Conduits.
Odd, since, why this oversight?
Sending a fleet of Spheres into the past, who can stop such?
And the Borg surely had the means to do so.
What annoys me is: surely the creators of ST KNEW what they were doing when they thought the Borg up.
Or... did they?
Even then, if you invent something like the Borg, why not use them as meant?
It would be like making Alien... and turn him into a vegetarian.
It makes about as much sense as planting a banana tree on the sun, right?
So... what's up?
Then there's the numerous inconsistencies, varying from ep to ep.
Too many to mention, what's up with that?
