not every instance of nanobots taking over a person/system is Borg related. I recall at least one TNG episode where the Enterprise got sick with a nanite infection. seems to be a pretty common path for technological miniaturization.

as for Leland, him getting freaking eyeball stabbed while trying to do the power authorization is going to haunt me every time I visit the optometrist. I'm not sure he should have even survived that at all.

I just didn't get that scene at all. There's neither logic nor trope that allows me to process why they went with a needle poke in the eye.
