See that would have been a cool idea except the concept of a season-long story-arch was something that was effectively unheard of at the time and something to which the Star Trek writers seemed fundamentally opposed to.

And then they've taken STD and gone all the way off the batcrap crazy deep-end with it.

I too have been re-watching DS9 because I didnt give it the fair shake it deserved at the time, and they did some small 2, 3 and 6 episode mini-arcs that I think worked quite well.

Further, this was back in the Golden Age of television when a season would have ~26 episodes.

Thats a lot for a single story arch.
