*** The reason the queen has knowledge of alternate timelines is simple: the assimilated the El-Aurians some time before Star Trek: Generations' opening scene. We know from TNG's "Yesterday's Enterprise" that Guinan has at least some sense of alternate timelines. She demonstrated it by knowing that Tasha Yar wasn't supposed to be there and Yar's death in the other timeline ("The Skin of Evil") was meaningless. Assuming Guinan wasn't unique in having this sense, it stands to reason that the Borg assimilated some of the El-Aurians who also possessed this power. Given how long El-Aurians live (Guinan looked exactly the same when she was talking with Mark Twain in "Time's Arrow"), it is even possible that the queen originally was an El-Aurian. That would also explain the absence of and Rubber Forehead prosthetics since El-Aurians look human.
** I'd always assumed that the Queens were just programmed that the Borg activate to deal with certain situations or manage various parts of the Collective (I'd have preferred it if they'd simply been avatars of the Collective but I have to concede that the show seems to indicate that this isn't the case). The fact that the same actress from ''First Contact'' returns in ''Voyager'' implies that these are actually "models" of queen rather than simply replacing a dead body with a new drone and so might imply that there are different queens activated under different circumstances

** Remember, Kes canonically has an uncle, which she doesn't treat as unusual, so multiple births do happen with some frequency.

* Ignoring the episode's strange opinion on morality and the rights of holograms, the conflict itself doesn't make any sense. If they were able to make a hologram with knowledge of how to cure the disease that means that the information on how to cure the disease was already on the ship's computers. In other words the episode could only happen by [[IdiotPlot everyone forgetting that they already have what they need]]. There was never any need to create the holographic Cardassian doctor.
