Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
The interruption of Picard's investigation into Data's origins for the Bynar computer upgrade establishes a pattern of abrupt mission changes that disrupts both science and medical operations. This sets up the medical crisis in Angel One, where similar interruptions and crises (e.g., virus outbreak) are exacerbated by unplanned events.
About Causal Connections
A directly causes B. The first event sets forces in motion that produce the second. These are the load-bearing connections of plot--remove one and the story structure collapses.
