** O'Brien's monologue about his service in the war, especially the line, "I don't hate you, Cardassian, I hate what you made me become." Much the same theme is explored much more darkly, decades later in real life but about 100 years earlier in the setting, with Dr. M'Benga and General Dak'Rah in "[[Recap/StarTrekStrangeNewWorldsS2E08UnderTheCloakOfWar Under the Cloak of War]]".

** The Maquis effectively managed what Maxwell failed to do, overturning the treaty and provoking a war between the Federation and the Cardassians. In just a few years, the Federation would experience the horror of what would have happened if Maxwell hadn't been stopped. (Indeed, if the Federation and the Cardassians had gone to war ''without'' Dominion involvement, then Starfleet would quite possibly have been in no shape to challenge the Dominion afterwards.)

** In light of the Cardassians' later behavior both on TNG and ''Series/StarTrekDeepSpaceNine'', leading to sparking the Dominion War, it isn't hard to wonder whether Picard should have taken Maxwell's advice after all. Maxwell's line, "I have prevented war, or at the very least delayed it a good long time," stings more than ever. Of course, if he ''had'' taken Maxwell's advice, open war would have surely broken out between the Federation and the Cardassians--a war that the Federation couldn't possibly win with its diminished fleet. The best to hope for was a delay of hostilities, which, as he says, Maxwell might have helped to do after all.
** Picard seems to have gotten himself noticed by the Cardassians in this episode, something that would later prove unfortunate in "[[Recap/StarTrekTheNextGenerationS6E10ChainOfCommand Chain of Command]]".
