The Omega molecule

According to Seven of Nine -

Omega is infinitely complex, yet harmonious. To the Borg it represents perfection. I wish to understand that perfection.

    I believe that this was already the case. Many moons ago I read a synopsis of a Star Trek show pitch that was slated for development which was set in the future and where warp travel was limited due to the use of an omega bomb. When I watched Discovery, I thought it was just a reworking of that original omega-based idea.

      Crazy stuff. Seems like they took the destruction of Andoria concept and later refit it to Romulus. And as with many turn of the century concepts, wanted to be super edgy.

      Thanks for sharing!
