Comment on Vulcans are an incredibly emotional and passionate species.

On what are you basing this? Because it’s not the Voyager episode.

EMH: There’s a definite neurochemical imbalance in the mesiofrontal cortex.

JANEWAY: Which means what?

EMH: That’s where the Vulcan psycho-suppression systems are located.

Vulcans have biological psych-suppression systems.

Based on all of Star Trek. You can see the links above that Vulcans have been extremely passionate, emotional, and violent before their teachings of logic and emotional suppression.

Or you could just continue ignoring all that.

Did you know Humans also have brain centres that exist for logic and emotional regulation?

  The episode I just referenced demonstrates that this is not true.
  
  If you want to be a canon cop, you can’t be selective.

    I asked you for a direct reference, and you provided a vague gesture.

    One episode having bad writing doesn’t magically erase every other entire series where Vulcans are as OP said…
