Well, their past wasn’t changed, and that’s the only past Starfleet is really concerned about - that’s the problem with predestination paradoxes.
I understand your reaction to the episode, but I also think you’re hitting on exactly the thing that makes it interesting.

Oh I agree that it makes it interesting I just think it wasnt handled well. I think commiting genocide because of a hunch is fucked up. Honestly thats my main problem.
And I am stopping myself before I start draggibg RL into it. Thank you for engaging with me :D
