Admiral Janeway wrote a book about the Borg without referencing Seven of Nine.

[Guy Gardener]

In Endgame, we are supposed to think that the cadets know nothing about Seven of Nine after reading Janeway's textbook on the Borg, because a grieving mother doesn't like to talk about her dead kid... But how does Voyager's history make a lick of sense if you pretend that Seven was never there?

Who saved the day?

What new narrative was invented to substitute for deleting Annika?

I think when Admiral Janeway was guest lecturer in that starfleet classroom she was introduced by Barclay as: "The woman who literally wrote the book on the Borg." As the scene plays out we realise that knowledge of Voyager's encounters with the Borg, including Seven, was known to the cadets. Just as an aside it's amusing in context of the thread in this forum regards ethics and Endgame there is this reference:

JANEWAY: "As they say in the Temporal Mechanics Department, there's no time like the present."
(Gosh they had a Temporal Mechanics Department. I wonder if they also had a Temporal 'Ethics' Department?).

I digress but yeah, the cadets were aware of Seven:

FEMALE CADET: "Admiral? Some of us were talking before class and we were curious. How extensive was Seven of Nine's involvement with Unimatrix Zero?"
JANEWAY: "I'd, er, prefer not to discuss Seven of Nine."

I'm not so sure that Janway's reluctance to discuss Seven was meant to convey she was being pretended away.

As far as saving the day, I'm more inclined to wonder to how things would have played out if Voyager had left the Borg to be conquered by Species 8472.

Maybe Adm. Janeway didn't want to talk about Seven of Nine because even 25-30 years after the return of Voyager on Earth, the issue was still too painful for her.
-> I noticed that individuals always refer/talk about people who were dear to them but they lost or they simply refuse to mention them (my Mum passed away last year and since this event, my Daddy never talked about/refered to her while for me, I cannot stop mentionning her at least once a day. Each reacts differently and I guess that our Adm. isn't different!

Ghislaine, my Dad was like that when my brother died. He just wouldn't talk about it and now it's too late. Mum on the other hand talks about her loss whenever we speak. I too think about him (my brother) every day.

Losing a loved one is very personal.

I seem to remember a cadet scene where they chanted, together,
“Seven of Nine, tertiary adjunct of unimatrix one.”

Where is that? Was Seven giving a lecture?

I'm sure that book was heavily influenced by Seven without mentioning her by name. I figured that book, and Janeway's repressed feelings about Seven's death, were erased in the alt-timeline when Voyager returned home, changing that timeline.

Or at least the book turned out differently. Maybe Janeway and Seven co-authored it, I like that idea. Endgame was like the Back to the Future series in that we saw a possible future that wasn't too great but it ends on a note that the real future will be better - and leave it to the imagination.

Just because she didn't want to talk about her, doesn't mean she didn't previously write about her. Just that it was a sensitive subject.

It maybe a short co-authorship since it's established at a certain date down the line Seven will die. Because Admiral Janeway altered the timeline doesn't negate Seven will die at that certain date in time? Probably be a better idea for Janeway to go back in time to prevent the events of Seven's death.
