[QUOTE]Originally posted by Boris: [QB] I'm not saying that in some cases, the size must be ignored in favor of the shape. However, as Bernd says, this is something that needs to be examined in every case, and as far as the K'Vort BoPs are concerned, a lot of evidence suggests they are different-size ships. Hence, in this case, size over shape would matter more. In the case of the Bounty, we might have to reevaluate the size. I'm just pointing out that we cannot by default ignore the size in favor of the shape. Capped in Mic makes a good point about being empirical, but to use his Jeep example, why couldn't I say "Well, it's a BIG Jeep, not a SMALL ONE BUT A BIG REGULAR JEEP :) And I know how to explain it -- remember the time Sisko's runabout was shrunk?" However, I feel there is little evidence to support ships that regularily shrink and grow, and that's why I'm leaning more towards the "blooper" theory. Timo: What if we find evidence that the ships' size is not merely simulated, but in fact real? If they approach each other but don't overlap, we'd be able to conclude this. Now, I'm not saying this necessarily applies to Doomsday Machine or other episodes. Again, we have to examine each case independently. [/QB][/QUOTE]
