By the way how are Saru's threat ganglia supposed to work? I would have understood them as means of expression whether Saru feels threatened by something (and this is totally fine), but Micheal used them to determine / validate that the creature is not dangerous. Since Saru is not a infallible as far as I have gathered so far, him just not being of the opinion something is a threat is an extremely weak argument. So is Micheal just being stupid about the ways she validates her hunches or do the writers actually want to say that Saru can reliably indicate using his ganglia that something he is not experienced with is objectively dangerous? Because that would be very shitty in a Star Trek series. The creature as a super computer to control the drive was already wild, but I would actually like Star Trek to be a bit more grounded than everyone a partial Q (and in turn making it even worse, because Q's abilities are at least sensible in regards to his overall understanding and control over reality).
