That was a fantastic episode altogether. Loved it.

I agree that the resolution should be obvious, and after the Betazed episode, it is again ridiculous that political problems are solved at a school, but then again, it was ridiculous that Picard solved all problems in the galaxy.

I also like how this episode resolves why Klingons played no role in Discovery after the time jump.

But Star Trek writers should come up with new ideas other than "our favourite alien race" diasporas. Will we have a Frengi diaspora next season?

It's a bit weird that losing Qonos somehow wiped out the whole Klingon empire.

Would this have been a callback to the bombs Discovery sporped into the core of Qo'nos waaay back in DSC Season 1? Were they dilithium based?
