            Yeah, to make the most obvious parallel, I don’t think it would have been cool for Picard to have taken steps to boost the House of Mogh’s status within the Klingon Empire, in the name of diplomacy or otherwise.

            And to be clear, I don’t think any of this is a particularly big deal.

      They are hiring them to handle the disposition of unneeded tokens of currency. I don’t see how that violates the prime directive…

        That’s one way to spin it, but another is that they’re elevating a particular Orion house back into prominence immediately after they were stripped of their wealth by their government, which should most certainly be considered interfering with internal affairs, no?

          Who said they were contacted by Starfleet? They could have known about his opportunity by any means and were just the first to take it? A normal thing for a free looting based economy…

      Wouldn’t that only apply if the Orions were pre-warp? Probably still a violation of 100 different Federation laws and Starfleet regulations, though.
