This Is Not A Good Thing.

Or, to be precise, the first two are good, the last is bad.

How do you think the player of the doctor in that series (the hologram, IIRC) would have felt if it had been established as a precedent that the Borg could just step in and do the specialist ability of that character better than they could?

Might as well get rid of all ability names and just record a single number for each character.
