We're not old, we are vintage.I'm not sure how to take that since Wil is younger than I am.

Duuuuude! You just broke my brain.
That's not right
But it’s true.
I know I was trying to be funny as in "that's not right" not that you were incorrect
I had figured! I was trying to go along with it, not to argue either. I meant it as in “it’s not right, but it’s true,” right meaning proper rather than correct, if that makes any sense.
That’s my bungled attempt at joking, not yours, you were clear!
It's amazing how much older the bald & gray combo can make someone seem.
True. I was still so young when TNG came out, Wesley seemed “old” to me, I probably assumed Picard was as old as my grandfather, and he’s less than 5 years older than my dad.
When I first became a fan, I didn't get the big deal about the TOS casts' age in the films. "What do you mean Captain Kirk is old? Look at Captain Picard!" And it looks even sillier to think of Kirk as old in TUC when we see William Shatner still at it and going into space 30 years later! Silly in TUC and even sillier in TWOK.
Well I am an oddity left eye has black eyebrow, right eye has white
Huh, I just thought about it, we haven’t seen much of any of Soji in the trailers. But we see a Soong ancestor interacting with Q in the past. So something happens that kills off the Soong line, therefore none of their creations in the dark timeline. That would also be your potential fix for Picard being an android. When Q sends them to the dark timeline, wouldn’t that make Picard flesh and blood human again?
No, that would result in Picard being dead. With no androids, there's nowhere to transfer his consciousness when the brain aneurysm kills him.
Different timeline, different treatments? What if the dark timeline has gene editing that was banned in the prime timeline?
Really, that would send the message that people are better off in a fascist state, which is certainly not a message I want a show, Star Trek or otherwise to make. "Sure, you have no rights, and the government are aggressive imperialists, but medicine is much more advanced and we can cure things which are definitely lethal in the Prime Universe, with all its freedoms, liberties and ethics."
Mussolini, trains.
I think it would just be a throw away line in this series. The hypocrisy of the federation with gene editing and dna modification had been covered many times in the shows already, prime example was Dr. Bashir.
Or if in the dark totalitarian timeline they are compelled to fuse him with Borg tech..
I am Picard of Borg.
Star Trek is the good future but to get your glorious Trek you have to live The Expanse
