In the episode with Data's mom she mentions they were going to talk about whether to make their first android male or female and then Noonien just went and made a head with his own face on it without asking her

speaking of heads, if we've established a positronic brain can be cloned back to life from a single positron there's like a 70% chance they're gonna bust out golem Lore at some point right?

I really wanted Soong's supposed biological son to reveal he WAS Lore, although I guess that would be like the Palpatine retcon

honestly it would've made WAY more sense if Lore was behind stuff like the Mars ban and had found a way to download himself into Maddox

Wasn't Maddox the guy who wanted to disassemble Data and argued he wasn't a person? It's really odd to me that he would have founded what amount to the Heretic Geth

yeah! it fucking is! it would've made WAY more sense if he tried to continue his twisted research with Lore's corpse but ended up a vessel for his positronic evil

Yeah people talk shit about bringing back old villains as lazy writing but it was so core to Lore's character that he always backed himself up somewhere and had some ridiculous plan to come back and show everyone how much smarter he was than them

And he IS core to this whole storyline, he's the whole original reason the Federation doesn't trust AIs and thinks, reasonably, that they might turn out to be psychotic mass murderers He's the reason people didn't trust Data, because he'd hack him or just pretend to be him

He's core to *Hugh's* storyline, which is why having Hugh and the ex-Borg's angst feature so prominently but not making him part of it is a borderline retcon

The last time we left Hugh and the ex-Borg on TNG they were dealing with the pain of being severed from the Collective by forming a nihilistic death cult that worshiped Lore as a god and believed he held the secret to true AI singularity and freedom from all pain

This whole thing the ultra-advanced synths from outside the galaxy apparently believe as objective truth, that the only logical way for AI to defend itself is to periodically torch all organic life, was Lore's whole worldview He just enjoyed it a little too much

would've been cool if that idea also tied in to the galactic barrier or the doomsday device or even the crystalline entity

Yeah if anything this show needs MORE fanservice. Like discovering the Doomsday Machine was just made to destroy the Reapers (I'm gonna keep calling them that until they give us another name for them)
