** Serova's destroying her ship and creating the subspace rift, and Data's subsequent comments about she was too confrontational and uncompromising, can resonate with people on both sides of the debate when it comes to certain green activism groups such as Extinction Rebellion. Some will agree with Data that Serova was an example of how people who undertake extreme actions can end up undermining their own cause and even alienating people who may have supported them, but others see Data's comments as illustrating precisely why Serova's actions were necessary to begin with, showing that people put too much emphasis on how the message is delivered rather than what the actual message is, and often won't do anything about a problem until it's staring them right in the face.

** Serova's crippling ships which use the Hekaras Corridor (and later destroying her own ship and creating the subspace rift, rift), and Data's subsequent comments about she was too confrontational and uncompromising, can resonate with people on both sides of the debate when it comes to certain green activism groups such as Extinction Rebellion. Some Detractors of these groups will likely agree with Data that Serova was an example of how people who undertake extreme actions can end up undermining their own cause and even alienating people who may have supported them, but others supporters might see Data's comments as illustrating precisely why Serova's actions were necessary to begin with, showing that people put too much emphasis on how the message is delivered rather than what the actual message is, and often won't do anything about a problem until it's staring them right in the face.

** Despite the episode's poor overall reputation, its message about how the things we take for granted can cause devastating damage to the environment has only grown more relevant as the years have passed, with many fans seeing the episode's concept as a very worthy one that got lost among the padding and technobabble that makes up much of the story.

* SenselessSacrifice: Serova's choice to stay on her ship while putting it on self destruct was not necessary. She could easily have set the self destruct, put the ship on autopilot to get far enough away, and then beamed back to the Enterprise before anyone knew any better. That is, unless she was DrivenToSuicide by the fact that no one believed her as well as knowing she was going to be in serious legal jeopardy for disabling not only two Feferation ships, but also a Fernrngi ship.

* {{Anvilicious}}: It's revealed that excessive use of warp capable ships and other subspace technology is damaging the fabric of subspace itself, slowly creating an approaching environmental collapse and will only increase exponentially over years. The allegory there was heavyhanded and everyone knew it, which was a detriment to the episode.
