Good lord I don't know how the Federation has held itself together the way it has beyond plot armor.

I almost think that was on purpose.


If you think about it the Federation was just asking to get every square inch of their ass kicked.


"We're not a military, we're all explorers, and we bring our families on these road trips".


"We're a superior society of lecturers and unbearably arrogant snots".


"Then when things get bad, we're wlling to sell out our ideas in a hurry, we're just really bad at it".
