* Russell notes that the Klingons' system of backup organs is "overdesigned" and allows more opportunities for things to "go wrong." If she's correct, then you might wonder why they would have evolved that way in the first place. But for a species that more often dies in combat rather than old age, it makes perfect sense that their physiology would naturally select overcoming injury rather than diseases and infirmity.

* Some reviews have commented that Crusher's condemnation of Russell taking risks with medical treatments could be seen as hypocritical when Starfleet doctors are often shown testing treatments to deal with new diseases or medical threats, but the key term in that context is ''new'' medical threats. Most of the time Starfleet doctors coming up with new cures are doing so because they're dealing with something unfamiliar and know that it's either try something new or their patient will die, but Doctor Russell's treatments are basically new ways of dealing with existing medical issues that either aren't immediately fatal or can be treated in other ways.
