I’m in camp Janeway did nothing wrong, but some things like the doctor in SNW keeping his daughter in the buffer raise questions about just exactly what is being stored and rematerialized. Maybe there was a way to use transporter magic to solve the trolley problem, but the needs of the many and two crew members were already MIA

We could have saved Tuvix’ pattern, split him into the family members we all meme over, and then used energy to pop him back

Wait so then why don't they duplicate people all the time? The galaxy could use another Data.

@explodicle @startrek I think it’s best not to ponder the capabilities of the transporter too closely, otherwise it kinda breaks the world.
