Aug 6, 2020 at 22:38 comment added lucasbachmann In the real world a single spaceship crash would cause an extinction event like what killed the dinosaurs. If you are concerned about a space station why not ask why not destroy every planet in the Federation. Whatever the answer is - it is the same for both. Some possibilities - it's rude, rules of war, or wasteful...for a start.
Aug 6, 2020 at 15:48 comment added Valorum The absence of a canon answer doesn't mean that we need to post speculation, it means that we need to go ask someone...
Aug 6, 2020 at 15:42 comment added A.bakker @Valorum also valid points, but when there is no definite answer (Because the show makers never gave one) then the plausible reasons are the only thing we have.
Aug 6, 2020 at 15:40 comment added Valorum The problem with presenting 'logical reasons' is that there's really no end to how deep down the rabbit hole you can go. Why are these reasons note plausible than, for example a) not wanting to upset the Bajorans by blowing up their station or b) that they're still struggling with the station's systems and can't give that order easily, etc etc
Aug 6, 2020 at 15:35 comment added A.bakker @Valorum as i said this what would be logical reasons. There has never been a clear statement why they did it because Star Trek (back then at least) was more subtle then that and left viewers to make logical conclusions instead of screaming the answer.
Aug 6, 2020 at 15:30 comment added Valorum This all seems vaguely plausible, but you haven't offered much by way of evidence to back it up
