But what we see in Picard ins't Data it's a reconstruction of Data

QUANTUM SIMULATOR

Probably a MacGuffin going from experience with STD

Well not exactly Transporters have become an integral part of Star Trek lore as a means of transportation they even took the effort in somehow explaining how the thing works unlike Quantum Stimulaters which I gamble after season 1 will never be mentioned again or explain how the damn thing works judging from previous experience with STD.

Also while watching the Blu ray of Alita Battle Angel I noticed Picard took some ideas from that movie as well the whole idea of putting memories in an artificial body seem to come from that movie.

That movie was far from the first. Ghost In The Shell did that years ago, just for one example.

Yeah but I remember the Manga Alita One Battle Angel being earlier than the Ghost In The Shell Manga

The point about "a screw loose" was that your comment showed once again that you somehow take what a FICTION WRITER has WRITTEN for a FICTIONAL CHARACTER to say in a FICTIONAL SHOW as somehow being REALITY, if only WITHIN THAT SHOW, which it clearly ISN'T. And it CERTAINLY isn't REALITY in THE REAL WORLD.

Even if the FICTIONAL CHARACTER Eddington really "believed" what the FICTION WRITER had WRITTEN for him to say, that might only mean that FICTIONAL CHARACTER Eddington is just nutz. It could also mean that the FICTION WRITER is also nutz, if they personally actually believe stuff like that, and weren't just MAKING UP SOMETHING for the purpose of Because Plot, or Because Conflict, or Because Drama or whatever.

P.S. Nog only needed a recommendation from a Starfleet command officer because Ferenginar is not a Federation member. Nor could they be, as it existed at least up until Rom took over at the end of DS9, and likely for some time after that as well.

On Ferenginar, females are always naked, not allowed to engage in business or earn profit... To do so is CRIMINAL.

You of all people should INSIST that Starfleet not allow Ferengi members until they change all of that!

Quark can be as Ferengi as he likes, on Ferenginar etc. But if he's on Bajor, or a Bajoran-controlled station, he has to obey their laws. Same as you would if you visited another country. Switzerland is not Borg-zer-land by expecting you to obey Swiss law while you're there.

But the whole trope of transporting a brain in a mechanical body or vice versa has been done too many times already.

No in the TOS episode By Any Other Name we had a similar scenario.

Supposedly the "mind" of others was transferred in "What Are Little Girls Made Of," in TOS, and "The Schizoid Man" in TNG. That I can think of offhand. But that's still just BS claptrap nonsense. If the actual brain isn't transferred, all you've done, at best - if it is ever actually possible - is just copy the memories.

The possibility of transferring the brain was mentioned in TOS "I, Mudd" but it was never shown that they had actually ever done it.

That sounds like the kind of doubletalk that Star Trek, especially TNG, is sometimes (in)famous for.

If you want to believe that a box could have your "consciousness" transferred to it, go right ahead. I know some people who think if their "mind" were "transferred" into a "spaceship" that was send out to explore the universe, that would be THEM exploring the universe. But they're wrong too. At best, it might be a more-or-less-accurate COPY of them. But it wouldn't be THEM.

But Data's brain is not organic and copying (or cloning ) an entire person from one thought is ludicrous but the whole notion that you can clone something orgainc from something mechanical is just silly.

Airiam is in Picard and we know how much Kurtzman knows about Trek and about science .
