    I mean, that would be up to Kes and Tuvoks family to decide. Complex, but families and relationships often are.

    Not shining a light on the trek “transporters are actually infinite cloning beams” problem was probably for the best though.

      That’s been similarly tackled from the eugenics perspective on TNG with these guys:

      On the other hand, it’d be fun to have a Gary from Fallout type episode caused by the transporters.

          s2e18 “Up the Long Ladder” aka the planet Ireland episode.

          The other plot involves a more “refined” planet populated by clones who need fresh DNA to not degrade their society.

            Ahh the Ireland episode. That’s why. Ive skipped it for so long I forgot the plot lines.
