I can’t think of a single VOY episode with mind-melds that didn’t have a character treating it as a super taboo or dangerous telepathic ability.

    Because Tuvok, and the rest of the crew, esp Janeway, lacked anything resembling ethics or scruples.

        No. I was being snide and should have been more clear:

        Janeway, I believe, was an especially unscrupulous captain who too often crossed the line to get what she wanted. This often included getting Tuvok, one way or another, to perform mind-melds under morally dubious circumstances. Sometimes Tuvok would undertake such endeavors on his own, without any prompting from Janeway, even without her knowledge at times.

        I liked Voyager, but that crew was shady as shit.
