Engineering Ingenuity versus Systemic Limits
Geordi's technical improvisation drives survival but repeatedly confronts hard system constraints—dilithium fragility, dwindling reserves, and tactical tradeoffs. The holodeck prototype, Leah's simulated parameters, and the warnings about phaser drain dramatize a recurring conflict: human ingenuity can cheat limits briefly, but doing so risks catastrophic system failure and ethical compromise.
