I can’t think of a single VOY episode with mind-melds that didn’t have a character treating it as a super taboo or dangerous telepathic ability.

    i haven’t watched modern trek because blehhhh, but i presume it’s just used as a deus ex machina? “ah crap we don’t have a sensible solution to this situation, let’s just have them mind meld to get the information”, shit like that?
