    Edit: What is your insistence on downvoting me, within seconds of responding, for simply disagreeing with you?

    Let me start here since this is important: I don’t get push notifications and only see your comments much later, in this case 40min. I don’t know you downvotes you and I see how you think it’s me, but it’s not me. I didn’t downvote a single comment or post from you and I’m happy to agree to disagree and learn a lot from you. I hope you believe me.

    That out of the way, let me go on disagreeing with you in a productive way, hopefully =)

    Nekrit Expanse

    Yes, that’s what I meant. It’s been years and it’s not my native language so sorry for the confusion.

    as a Neelix lover

    I would also consider myself a Neelix fan but I have a different reading of him: He starts as the sneaky deal maker who tries very hard to give back to the crew because he thinks they will send him away the moment they don’t need him anymore. Janeway reacts to this by giving him tasks and purpose even tho star fleet is way advanced. That’s why he tries to get a map of the Nekrit Expanse. He was the guy who knew around and now they get into territory that’s even new for him. That’s when it clicks for him that he’s valuable just for existing and doesn’t have to justify his presence, still he gets a new meaningless title (ambassador) but he’s not afraid of losing everything anymore. That’s my interpretation. I totally get yours.

    I thought you wanted him to play a role in the final but now that I think about it, you are right, he should have been mentioned at least. Communication to the gamma quadrant is still not straight forward, but some kind of honoring should have happened.

    And to the guy who keeps downloading you: stop it. You aren’t siting with me by doing that.
