Yeah! If Data's going to use a colorful 20th century metaphor while waving a phaser rifle, then the next scene should have been pure fan service cheese- Bullhonkey Bev, Troi, Riker, Data, Picard and Geordi on horseback, wearing dusters, shepherding the refugees from Planet Botox to safety. We have finally resolved the moral dilemma, it took 2/3 of the run time, the crew are sacrificing their careers for these pacifist dumb dumbs, go all out on the metaphor.
Yeah they should’ve totally leaned into it!
