#they seem to be allergic to depth that'd make it better though

You know what also would have been a great thing to make textual in STP S3?

Seven helping Picard save Jack with no qualms, questions, or issues because once upon a time a woman kidnapped her son and dissected him alive for his parts, she didn’t value him as a person, just as a thing he had inside him she could use. Seven couldn’t save him, was the one that in a way doomed him (he was on her radar Because of Seven, and Jack is in danger seemingly bc of something he inherited from Picard, it would leave both of them feeling responsible) and she’s not going to just sit down and watch this happen again to somebody else. 

It’s not that I think her being loyal and chill about this is ooc Without this, the lessons she learnt about protecting your own from Voyager were clearly formative to her as a person, but it would have made it Better with little to no effort or need for excessive screen time to do it.
