Therefore, the number of deaths doesn't determine when they evolve.It's all about
1. Is it WELL within their technology
2. Will they reasonably choose to employ that evolution if they can achieve it.
You do not listen. At all.
The Borg do not consider general kinetic weapons or offense to be worth adapting to. Because very few species they have encountered can physically overpower a drone. This is well known fact, and is a very large INTENTIONALLY CREATED weakness. You don't get to suppose a nulliffication of a weakness to cover yourself based on absolutely nothing.
#1: Yes, and another well known fact is that every technology they get is done through assimilation. They don't research and develop their own tech. Now, name a species that has set up personal kinetic shield system smartass.
#2: Only if it's part of their standard modus operandi. Which it is not.
Now, if your next post does not have an explanation as to why the Borg have never deployed this wonderful nullification to one of their known weaknesses, and explains a way around their known need to directly assimilate such tech, then you cannot win this point and you should apologize to everyone you have affronted with your time wasting tactic here.
