For reasons I don’t understand my work asked Craig McLucke to visit us, which he did. As he tells it, Borg was a pre-existing platform, Kubernetes came along as a part of a program to develop a replacement/furtherance of the Borg. The actual code name was Seven of Nine for that reason but legal couldn’t clear it with CBS/Paramount/Viacom in time for distribution.

I am no TOS expert but I think this is right, though I think the later instances of it being said are as Star Ship.

I think I also read in one novel it meaning UFP Starfleet Ship, but that’s at best Memory Beta.

I get that this is just your opinion, but you’re expressing it in such a negative and snarky way that you’re coming across as plain rude.

No need to be rude my dude.” -- Spock (probably)

Sad point, well put.

I don’t know that insistence is the right way to phrase it. Sir Patrick and Brent Spiner are good friends, IIRC Nemesis was written by Spiner’s old flatmate and best friend. As such the wants of the actors started creeping into the scripts, not out of insistence per se, but perhaps more out a natural affect of a close working relationship. Sometimes a healthy distance is most important between a writer’s room, and the cast.

Porthos made it to the end of his series, meanwhile Jadzia…

Jeri Ryan’s smug/superior looks in this are utterly excellent. Doing such a spot on impression of Picardo’s curious affect, total banger performance.

But Vulcans are vegetarian! Surely this should be something plain and veggie. A hummus pita with a single kebab shop pickled chili.
