That one I felt like I understood: the stakes were so high that they couldn’t take a 1/1000000 chance of it failing. Every second they stayed there monitoring it meant that they might be able to affect the outcome. Something something “they cared” something, willing to bet their futures for the next decade or so and even lives to prevent the bad. But ofc at the end of the day they are stories, meant to tear-jerk at our emotions, not teach us strategic tips for our own day-to-day living:-).

gregorum@lemm.ee 7 months agohey, don’t get me stated on the whole, “why didn’t Tuvok just beam over those tricobalt devices to the Caretaker’s array with timers on them to go off a millisecond after using it to send the Voyager back home? So what if we didn’t get a show? at least we would have gotten a satisfying ending, which we certainly never fucking got. Oh, you just dump the ship in the AQ, and what, THE END??‽!!! THAT’S IT??‽!!! THANK YOU AND GOODBYE FOREVER??‽!!

Why didn’t the D beam photon torpedoes on timers to the Borg cube in ‘Q Who?’
