Dilithium vs. Lithium

As for tri-cobalt, there's nothing mentioned that indictes that the 'tri' is actually a scientific prefix for cobalt. It could be nothing more than a cobat bomb with three layers of nuclear compression to deliver its yield. That's a nasty amount of dirty energy when you think about it...

That is possible, and would be compatible with the dicobalt explosive reference as well. It would be less compatible with the hints from "The Voyager Conspiracy" about the tricobalt devices creating severe subspace distortions, unless we want to take Seven's psychosis in that episode as license to throw out virtually everything she said.
