You're right that it should be equally likely for non-humanoid aliens to be shown and part of the Voyager crew, but this is an out-of-universe consideration by the writers, which has little bearing on the in-universe possibility of the humanoid aliens being able to repress bad memories. Note that nothing I've said hinges on being biologically human, I merely called the behavior "human", which is closer in meaning to "emotional, fallible" | |

You're free to argue that this is forced by the writers to make the viewer connect to the aliens more (which is true, in my opinion. We would care less about an unemotional sentient ball of goo), but given that the characters are all capable of human(like) emotions, it's fair to assume that they are therefore prone to human behavior in general (except when explicitly contradicted, which is not the case for the repressed memories afaik). | |
