Obviously the Feds got the exclusive rights to a drug that makes people geniuses.

Are the Delta Fliers being manned by name-crew or redshirts? What about the Defiant?
Very good point. Main character immunity aside, fighting the technobabble brilliance of Data or Seven or Jadzia is going to be very different to fighting Captain John Smith.

No, this is about the ships. It's not the delta flyers commanded by Wes at command and Naomi at operations, it's all competent people who are "the best."

One.

If it's piloted by Troi.
Science Fiction is a genre where anything can happen. Just make sure what happens is enjoyable for yourself and your audience.

If it was piloted by either only pre-ascension Sisko or pre-deify Kirk, no amount of Dealtas would break that ship into scrap. But...if it would be both, then the Borg consciousness would have a very, very bad time.
