Talk:Borg adaptation

Where the hell does anyone get the idea that Spock was "modifying the shields"? He just turned the Reliant's shields off remotely. The plan is even explicitly discussed:

SPOCK

                                    (descends)
                            The prefix code is 16309. All
                            commands from each Starship bridge
                            are relayed electronically; each
                            ship has its own prefix combination
                            code...

                                          KHAN
                            Thirty seconds...

                                          KIRK
                            ... to prevent an enemy from doing
                            just what we're attempting; using
                            our console to tap in a message,
                            an order to lower Reliant's damn
                            shields...

Repair

Is repair really an "adaptation"? To my mind, adaptation is when the Borg modify their defenses to mitigate or neutralize enemy weapons; fixing damage to their own ship is not adaptation. --Ted C 09:29, 13 November 2007 (EST)

• It's been a while since I've seen Voyager, but I seem to keep remembering Seven constantly talking about how "we will adapt" to everything. In the context she uses it in, I could see Seven believing that "repair" is simply "adapting to damage." (While I'm here, I think the Shields and Frequency sections should be merged, or their connection made more obvious since they are very closely related.) - Mad 09:50, 13 November 2007 (EST)
