Right? I’ve always thought delving into the nuance of sentience and the potential legal conundrums posed by dated views and laws in that scope was absolutely peak Trek. It’s about ethics and morality, and figuring out how to do the best you can, and afford sentience the respect that it universally deserves, with the knowledge that you currently have at hand. It’s actually something of a trope in the ST universe. Literally every series in the franchise has at least one “courtroom” episode. While they’re not all great, I think it’s a good tradition to uphold.
