Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Troi's initial hesitation and lack of confidence in assuming command, asking O'Brien and Ro for suggestions reveals her lack of tactical experience, and this leads directly to her later difficult decision to divert power to engineering, trusting her intuition and hope over Ro's tactical advice."
