Comment on Are there any Trek episodes where they enforce the Prime Directive to protect a developing world within Federation space from an external influence?

In Star Trek: Insurrection, the Enterprise protected the Baku from the So’na, though if I remember right, there was some debate as to whether the prime directive applied as the Baku weren’t native to the planet.

…which is an absolutely insane debate. No one tries to argue that the PD doesn’t apply to the Romulans, even though they’re not native to their world.

Colony planets aren’t considered “fair game” for interference.
