I guess the heroization is kinda unavoidable. But havnig multiple hero at the same time makes them less special.

Well that was a good episode. It was cool to revisite the old movie. It didn't need to be a cameo, but it led to interesting discussion. The downside of this is that it somewhat make Star Trek about its legendary character, which I think is unfortunate.
One of the good thing about TNG, D9 and Voyager is that they happen in the same time period. (Yes TNG is solo for 7 seasons, but the rest follow soon after)
It makes you feel that Picard wasn't the only great captain of his time, by opposition to TOS when even when Sulu become a captain, he is still a tier bellow Kirk. ( I mean the way he is presented )

Ah so it was a parasite. Kinda disappointing. Also it means Neelix was responsible for the situation ? It's not actually clear how Tuvo got the parasite.

It's not a virus, it's the mind of the other episode, isn't it?
