Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Troi's disturbing experience in the nacelle control room (beat_337d2e259c585344) leads her to report her symptoms to Dr. Crusher, Riker, and Worf (beat_b90d83d029a9934c). This is the direct consequence."
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.
