If only they could recreate the transporter accident that makes a perfect copy of a person. Then all that has to happen is to take the clone and split it before it realizes anything.

That way EVERYONE could exist together.

That's exactly what I've been telling people for ages regarding the Tuvix issue. Simple, yet effective.

Somebody made a full video explaining why that would make stuff twice as bad https://youtu.be/17cbC1AR7FE?si=StNEBon_i88Pt1hm

I didn't realize that Allison Pregler was still making videos post Channel Awesome fiasco. I always liked her movie and show reviews back in the day. Thanks for the recommend!

I can now see how I could be VERY clearly wrong in every way on the Tuvix topic from another perspective...

Most of the crew dies offscreen, they just keep duplicating them all the time.

I could see Janeway being based and using it that way

It could also solve the need for clones of the Vorta. The Dominion could just pop another one out of the buffer and not have to depend on cloning facilities.

God I didn't even think of that. Instant army. Altho, for that matter, you could also just use a replicator to fabricate an instant army of killbots.

I wonder if killbots would be better than the Jem'hadar. Certainly a Jem'killbot cyborg would be better than both.

I'm sure the Dominion put that to the test at some point.

Though with the power of the dominion, it wouldn't shock me if they invented the borg that way and the time shenanigans happened
