Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Data's role as Jellico's first officer demonstrates his ability to adapt to new command styles and emphasize efficiency over tradition. This mirrors his later analytical approach in 'Descent, Part I', where he takes initiative in debugging his own emotions and discussing their implications with Geordi.
