She did the correct thing, it was more selfish to let Tuvix live, he had no actual family or friends because he was neither Tuvok or Neelix, there’s not one logical reason that he should have been left as is.
This is just a scifi trolley problem, but easier.
This community needs a new meme.
Compared to Tuvix, the Tuvix-meme will never die.
It’s Star Trek in general. Tuvix is one of the most hotly debated things in the Trek Fandom, outside of what shows are good and what aren’t. Not surprising there are going to be a bunch of memes based off of that.
The tuvix debate is an offshoot of the the most important trek debate of all. “Who is the best captain?” We won’t let the fact that there is an obvious best captain get in the way of debating over it.
I mean clearly it is Captain Pike.
Best captain? Yes, I’ll allow that.
Best leader? Noooo. He gives his crew waaayyyyy too much of a long tether, and is often completely absent from major events and decisions, and that’s just his command style. He is fortunate to have a crew that this works for, but there are quite a few moments where a firmer hand on the tiller would have denied us an entire episode of entertaining drama.
