*** This all ignores that he was not originally intended to go down the path to betrayal. One should, however, take into consideration the fact that he was orphaned at a young age (some point before he was 16,) in a, most likely, extremely brutal fashion, by people he was supposed to have been able to trust, and then was also evidently sold into slavery by said people. This would have the potential to traumatise anybody, and especially so in the type of close-knit family that Nietzscheans are supposed to cultivate.

* Andromeda is able to be incapacitated by hacking of a boarding party. Which makes no sense for a godlike LivingShip unless you assume that the High Guard built outer-circuit backdoors into all of her vital functions... which would be logical for any AI that had the ability to nuke entire stars to dust.

* Tyr's dismissal of Rommie and Gabriel's relationship because they can't procreate ignores all the ways that two androids could combine their data/blueprints/etc. in order to produce offspring in an equivalent way to organic reproduction (something ''Film/TheMatrixRevolutions'' got right, conversely). Sure, Tyr isn't a scientist or famously open-minded, but Rommie doesn't contest the point, implying the writers didn't think of it either.

** Reinforced; Rommie at one point observes that she based her humanoid appearance on the mythological Andromeda, extrapolating a likely human appearance given the lack of information about what the original Andromeda looked like and running through over a hundred thousand possible combinations of pleasing human features to form her current avatar.

* Doyle is an Irish name. So is Seamus Harper. Seamus likely named his creation after a relative.

* Andromeda is a character from Greek mythology renowned for her beauty; which is probably where the producers got the idea of having the personification of the ship be a hologram of a beautiful woman.

** He was always openly and proudly the TokenEvilTeammate and only allied with the others out of mutual convenience. In the first season he was a WildCard who could go toe-to-toe with Dylan in the scheming department; when he turned on them he was suddenly a dumb thug.

* Fans of Tyr Anasazi are displeased with the character [[spoiler:ending up a villain]]. This troper on the other hand cannot stand Tyr's wide-eyed stare. But both these things fit together perfectly. That unblinking, fixated stare, and unmoved voice, are both traits of a sociopath. No wonder the crew got over Tyr's betrayal so easily. His true nature was kind of right there in front of them from the start.
