What do you think?
You know what, I was team Xeno from the start and pushed it, but they’re just so technologically advanced in Star Fleet that they’d probably just zap them with a force field, I’m thinking a lattice of cubes like, BUT! If you do that, let’s say they infest the cargo bay, and they do that goo thing in there, and that’s their base, they evolve quickly and adapt, not like the borg but evolutionarily, we’ve seen that in a few good films and some bad films and adaptations.

“Mr. Worf. Activate force fields on all the lower decks, maximum energy pulse, 2x2” lattice."
“Sir. Are you sure? That would terminate all life in the lower decks, sir.”
“Make it so!”
And ZEP!
