What makes you think the French criminal law code will be in effect, unchanged, for the next 378 years?
Did they state this outright in the episode? My memory is foggy, but my impression was that they deployed the armor to defend themselves against the Borg ships chasing them, and the rest of their strategy mostly hinged upon outrunning the collapsing conduit.
So say we all!
Yeah I think this was the case too. I don't think the armor was needed for the hubs.

The ablative generator wasn't for travelling through the Transwarp conduit, it was to give Voyager a chance against the Borg weapons.Voyager needed several thousand tons of plate armor to go through a Borg transwarp conduit ... yet La Sirena somehow manages to breeze through as though it was on a Sunday drive.
What gives?
We may not see the ablative generator or transphasic torpedoes again, they were pretty overpowered really.
It makes sense that they are not used and instead held in reserve for when they are truly needed, if Starfleet keep using them all the time the Borg will adapt to them.
Didn’t the Enterprise-D go through a conduit just fine in Descent?
The whole transwarp thing has never been particularly consistent anyway, first it was a conduit that you needed to find, but once you found it anyone could go through (Descent), then it became an engine that could be used anywhere with the right tech (Dark Frontier I think), then you could use it without tech if you found a hub (Endgame).
The newest appearance seems closest to its original depiction in TNG.

Murder is ridiculous. As for the other charges, good luck getting a conviction. Picard barely survives a second attack, having already reported the first one, and doesn't stick around for a third? Nobody's going to want to try that one.
Picard would probably like being brought up on that charge. It'd be "The Measure of a Man " all over again, and he'd win this time too.
Not impressed, the ST09 Enterprise did 16 ly to Vulcan in five minutes lol
He had to continue the known fact that all Scottish people are engineers with bad accents...
Yeah, I would find it hard to believe that any jurisdiction would charge him for defending himself.
Same thing with weapons in the house. I would imagine there would be plenty of safeties for 24th century tech that would make firearm safety even more possible than now.

Yes but that was in the JJ Abrams movies which was an alternate timeline and the writers clearly were not following the same continuity.
The Qo'noS one was worse. That was under 5 minutes.
Picard isn't some nobody off the street. He didn't get promoted to Admiral for nothing. She should be professional to him over matters that aren't just about Picard but have a broader bearing on Federation interests and rise above political disagreements. Clancy is a prideful, petty woman in that scene.
Everyone knows it was a shapeshifter!
IOW, human.
OK, trying to respond to a couple points brought up:
1) Oh & the squadron.
Jurati wakes up after the call to Clancy. But Raffi is calling Jurati a Romulan spy before the convo, and I think she knows about the tracker as well, and Picard knows Oh paid a visit. It is a leap, but not a huge one. Raffi would have made it... Picard?
2) Jurati 180
Maybe she feels that with Maddox out of the way, then more synths cannot be produced. Deed done. And that 1 synth is not that much of a threat. And she can just geek out about it. Especially since she is caught. Even if the repentence is not real, she has to appear repetent, it is her only play.
3) The Big Bad
They had to survive the event because they survived to engineer the 8 star system & leave the warning. So the synths did not wipe them out. If the synths were victorious, they'd remove the warning as well.
But if the big bad survived (unlike the Iconians and others floated), where are they now? They do not seem to be aware of, or mind, a whole planet of super advanced synths hanging out. For around 9 years at least. Is the danger passed?
Or, one could read the episode as saying that the folk who left the Admonition are NOT the big bad. They warned others. Do not do what we did to trigger the big bad. That interpretation would leave the Admonition Civ AND the big bad alive, at least 200,000 years ago. But BOTH seem not to be minding the planet of synths.
4) Zhat Vash & Data
I do not think they considered Data a real threat/above the threshold. He had no emotions. Did not eat or drink. Etc.

More on Oh & Clancy.
Oh told Clancy Picard was full of crap about a Romulan incursion. If Clancy buys Picard's version, she knows, at best, Oh sucks at her job. At worst, she has to be under suspicion, especially being half-Romulan.
Not the kind of person I'd give a squadron of ships to.
