But I mean if you want to really nit-pick (and lets be honest, its Star Trek, who doesnt?) I think a lot of Starfleet ranks depend on rotation. The world needs ditch-diggers and Starfleet ships need Ensigns.

You start promoting people all the time there wont be anyone left to do the gruntwork.

I've always thought they needed an episode with an angry Kim going WTF. So we join with these brutal terrorists that 10 minutes ago were equally willing to kill us as the Cardassians, and now they all outrank me. So much for loyalty.



Harry Kim should have been the serial killer on that crew.
