Not to bring real life into this, but men now have been having kids in their 70s and 80s now so that's not really an issue.

Well, for a moment there, Jack almost sold me on the Borg.
If the series is set in 2401, and even if Sydney is just fresh out of the Academy, that would make her c. 21 and born about 2380, but Alandra is older, so did Geordi already have a kid by Nemesis.
Not another Demora Sulu where the explanation is that Sulu didn't even know he had a daughter until after The Motion Picture but before the Genesis Trilogy

Honestly I just assumed Jack's commission was a reference to Wesley. I still think it's odd that they didn't bring Wheaton on anyway and have him quip about following his older brother.
Oh man, now I wish the after-credits scene was Wesley meeting Jack as a Time Lord and telling him about how his best years as a young adult was on the Enterprise.
The Borg will be back, they always do. And much like Disney will never not have Jedi and Sith, Paramount/CBS will never let the Borg be killed off for good. Kinda takes the entire steam out of gambits like this.
Heh ... perhaps a future novel will play that scene out for you.
The Borg should've sent some TIE fighters after them, while back on Earth a bunch of short furry aliens stop the Borg by throwing rocks at them.
It seems going by Prodigy (where it's implied that the Kazon basically took over the old Borg transwarp conduits) and here that after Voyager Endgame the Fed basically just left the Borg alone to wither to death. I'm very surprised that Admiral Nechayev, who was so eager to use Hugh as a virus, didn't issue an order to basically hunt down all remaining Borg ships and eliminate them. Also the Borg cube here in complete disrepair was not at all like the basically normal, functional Borg cube seen in Prodigy. Not necessarily a hard contradiction per se but it is odd. Unless the damage was compounded by the synth vision the Borg assimilated as mentioned in Season 1?
I feel like I'm missing something. What's the Disco connection?"My mom got sick and my brother had a hernia" has to be what RMB called a big FU to Disco
i earnestly hope this is the end, indeed the last generation of Borg
Data said this cube was only 36% functional. Presumably it’s been slowly consuming itself since Endgame
One would guess that the virus infected Queen probably was unable to maintain her cube beyond cannibalizing it to survive.
That in a crisis situation, people stop doing what's urgent and instead tell tales of their childhood trauma
It would be nice, but a future writer will inevitably want to use them again at some point, and they'll be allowed to do so. Especially if how this seaon of Picard went with Matalas, they'll be given the same professional courtesy to do so.
For those who were expecting Janeway, just a note - Matalas expressly stated, out of a desire not to get anyone's hopes up, that Janeway would not be in the finale. At the time, there was some pushback - 'you never know with producers' - and I'm not saying that's a bad reaction or anything, because I get it. A lot of producers are like that.
The thing with Matalas is, he seemed genuine in his anxiousness that people were going to go in expecting it, and I could kind of tell he was electing to cushion the blow for Janeway fans. No doubt he recognized on some level that some fans were going to reach this point feeling like it was a surefire thing, which I guess speaks to a potential problem with the writing, but whatever.
My point is simply that if, in the future, he does get his show (or whatever form it takes) and repeats the song-and-dance, if you should happen to hear ahead of time that he's cautioning against expecting a certain legacy character, I'd say take him at face value on the matter. If I hadn't seen that tweet, and bought into it as genuine, I would have been disappointed as well.
