True, but I'd imagine it can differentiate between a gas and solid matter. Or not, and the transporter is even more dangerous to use than I had imagined.

Then how can they beam into atmosphere? Same effect with a lower density, right?
I think the argument is the Borg are so antagonistic and brutal that eventually they get destroyed by someone who figures out their weaknesses. They're incapable of ascending like Star Trek and Babylon Five have races do or spreading out beyond the galaxies so they never go extinct. The Borg have a single failstate due to being a Collective so they always end up being wiped out.
At least in the timelines that Jurati examines.
Even in a galaxy that they successfully took over, maybe the Organians or Q annihilate them.
Have you watched TMP, TOS or ENT? McCoy is supposed to appear unreasonable but I find myself favoring his position.True, but I'd imagine it can differentiate between a gas and solid matter. Or not, and the transporter is even more dangerous to use than I had imagined.
All in all it's just a brick in the wall.
I mean, literally, Kirk beams him up in TMP just about 10 minutes after the horrific death of two people.
Not even in an emergency situation, but drydocked ABOVE EARTH.
Keep in mind that this La Sirena is Confed tech. We know General Picard got transferred into a synth body and it may be routine in their timeline. Thus, the scan of Elnor.
I wish they'd left it ambiguous but just had "Elnor program is programmed to say things that are reassuring."
So did Tallinn or whoever miss a borg in Picard's dungeon, causing one to scare Yvette and cause her descent to insanity? 
Did Robert blame Jean-Luc for what happened? I'll bet he did. In fact, this actually gives a more understandable reason he hates Jean-Luc than whatever they mentioned in that Family episode back in TNG.
Picard's musing he used to imagine his mother get old and offering tea is probably nonsensical to people who didn't see Yvette's appearance in TNG. That line was very obviously jammed into the dialogue to explain that episode.

It's such a common error, it got its own official ship name in DS9 - the USS Trial (NCC-1948)! No longer an error.

If transporters can compensate for the Heisenberg uncertainty effect, they can certainly compensate for electron repulsion.

Very. I half expected him to add, "Oh, and I imagined her with a French accent for some reason..."
I tried that same setup in Kerbal Space Program, and it worked OK even though the Gemini CM/SM was too heavy. It landed with only a whisper of fuel left.Oh, and re the canonicity of the NX-01 refit. Modelers build all sorts of stuff. I myself built a model consisting of a Gemini capsule slapped on top of a LEM descent stage. That ship never flew in reality, but was featured in the 1968 film "Countdown".
At least the TNG actress and this one had kind of a facial similarity. Good casting.
Sometimes deepfakes aren't even necessary. In discussing the trailers for that other Star franchise, I pointed out that actor Joel Edgerton looks more like younger Uncle Owen than actual younger Phil Brown, the actor who played Uncle Owen in the 1977 Star Wars film if you google Phil Brown's photos.
I'm not so sure the writers wouldn't do something like that. It sounds very much in keeping with the sort of storytelling I've seen so far.
Perfectly encapsulates what retcon means.
Admiral Kathryn Janeway, Bipolar to the end.
