Moreover, the members also can generate their own opinions and ideas, but they cannot walk the talk: The final decision rests upon the Queen herself, and once her decision is set, all members will 100% comply with no exceptions.

This comes back to bite her in her billions of asses when she realizes that though her organizational skills in military and communication areas are unmatched, the cluster of individual and dissenting viewpoints of the Federation's member species gives them ''plenty'' of opinions and theories to consider, resulting in them being extremely adaptable. Meanwhile, Alice has much difficulty doing so because she had no one else to tell her when she is making the wrong decisions.
