im just gunna pepper this here. its been a minute.
Tuvix did not have the consent of Tuvok nor Neelix. You must also consider that Tuvok has a wife and family. Neelix too has a relationship with Kes. Janeway did nothing wrong.
The way I think about the scenario is this.
- Two Main cast crew members die on away mission
- Q shows up and says I will bring them back to life and in exchange I will erase some random Starfleet member from the timeline and make it as if they never existed.
- Would anyone in Starfleet be ok with this?
I’m guessing no…
Except that third random was created by Q to sacrifice because he enjoys the moral dilemma and they never would have existed otherwise.
I swear if they made Tuvix less odd-looking, people would be against murdering him
And that’s why they never mention it in any other episode. Because Janeway fucked up and they just want us all to forget about it. But we will never forget.

So Janeway could have saved Kes and she chose not to
Janeway let Tuvix survive as long as she did. That was pretty fucked up.
As I recall it took them a few weeks to figure out how to reverse the problem, it’s not like she kept him around for a few weeks for her amusement.
It was for Parkotay’s amusement, iirc. They eventually got better at using the transporter.
How could he have gotten their consent before existing?

Found him… help me!
Hey, he’s the guy who helped me fix my car!
Pfffff
He’ll “fix” more than that, if he catches you! If you are lucky, he will affix you to his wall as a worthy trophy, while if not…
Alternately…
From the way people talk about her and coffee, you would think that she drinks it every day.
While in fact, she only drinks it on days that end in “y”. (and on those days, every hour)
crew morale dampened and their coffee acquiring ability affected as a result? Tuvix? more like Tu bad! She wants her coffee!
I wonder how “temporary” T’Pel deems this problem 🤔
