Maybe they figure it would be a waste of time?
What are your unanswered Star Trek questions?

Because the Kazon suck that badly.
I always wondered if that was the writers' way of acknowledging to the fans just how bad they were. When even the Borg won't assimilate you, you have to be trash.

Which is doubly sad, since the Kazon managed to take over Voyager and even keep it longer for a period longer than the Borg had for STFC.
Which explains why Janeway was trying so hard to run away from them.
From what I have read that was kind of revenge by one of the writers that they did that with the Kazon because they were unhappy with the fact they were given lots of screen time.
Someone mentioned the answer on here in one of the Discovery forums but there was a novel or something where they explained what happened off screen that knocked out the Enterprise at the end of season 1? They never gave a full explanation on screen of what knocked ouot all their tech but was hoping someone would remember the name of that novel or alien race.

Drastic Measures? Desperate Hours? Fear Itself? The Way to the Stars? The Enterprise War? Dead Endless? Die Standing? Wonderlands?
Those are the 8 Discovery novels.
Thanks. I think it was a fight off screen with The Ware who we saw in an episode of Enterprise, but don't quote me on that. I just have a vague memory some alien species was mentioned not 100% certain it was the ware

How would Picard (the TNG version) and Garak react to one another?
That would actually be an interesting meeting of the minds.
A general In universe question(i know the obvious reason): Why the borg didn't just send a dozen cubes to earth and destroy them? I mean they clearly viewed earth as a threat, even trying to go back in time to wipe us out, clearly can get to us rather easily and had many thousands of ships, yet they only ever send 1 ship at a time. Its honestly what's always bothered me about borg storylines.
I guess they have thousands of other planets they also see as a threat. Usually one cube gets the job done.
The FX budget allows only one cube /s
Realistically, because then the Federation couldn't win.
In Universe, Empires built on expansion must both keep expanding and protect the territory already extended into. They can't dedicate all their resources towards conquering one little world on the other side of the galaxy. Tossing a cube at it once in awhile is one thing. An Armada is another.

So what situations would need the Borg sending a fleet?
My guess would be an enemy on their actual border that presents an immediate threat to their longterm goals.
Or a species whose biological and technological distinctiveness is so unique and important that the Borg believe the assimilation of them is an absolute requirement as part of their longterm goals of achieving "perfection", and the pursuit of the immediate assimilation of which doesn't create weakness within their existing territory that could be exploited by other enemies.
Species 8472.
Species 8472, we saw a fleet of 15 cubes in "Scorpion"
I actually wrote "Species 8471" in my reply as an example of an enemy on their border but felt I had the name wrong so deleted it. Only off by 1...
