A fair point=2C but I didn't just do it like this because I felt like I had=
no other alternative. In English=2C "Resistance is futile" is a very imper=
sonal=2C imperious and almost overly formal phrasing of the sentiment (of c=
ourse=2C considering what the Borg are=2C that's not surprising) and I was =
trying to capture some of that sense in the translation.
With that said=2C I understand where you're coming from. Qov's suggestion o=
f {'omlaH pagh} is excellent and I might go with that.
