It’s what happens when you bottle up emotion … and the you do it, the more explosive the release
Vulcans are like bottles of Coca-cola … and humans are like Mentos just wandering around waiting to drop in on them.
Everyone’s fine as long they don’t mix
I think I might be a Vulcan
It’s almost as if the Trek characters are trying to describe different traits of humanity.
The show would probably be very different if it was made by Klingons.
They’d be written in iambic pentameter and every episode would end either with all the characters dying or all the characters getting married.
It makes sense, at their core they are the same as the Romulans, the logic philosophy is an attempt to counteract it.
Without the Kolinahr, Vulcan would be nothing but espionage, intrigue, cloaking devices, and Reman slaves all over the place.
I always thought it was weird af that the Vulcans never had cloaking tech but the Klingons did. They were warp capable far before humans and I guess I just kind of assumed before Klingons.
The Klingons got cloaking devices from the Romulans when they used to be allies.
Okay. That makes a bit more sense, but how would the race that came from Vulcan have it and not them?
Patent law
Bird patent law
Even the Klingons had to put them in birds of prey to be compliant.
The Romulans invented it first, but the Federation - and by extension, the Vulcans - also have cloaking technology. They’re just banned from using it by the Federation-Romulan peace treaty. (ref: TNG S7E12 “The Pegasus”)
Likely the same reason some countries/peoples on earth don’t yet have nuclear weapons.
