Picard's 'smug arrogance' as Q called it got blown out of the water in this story. Galaxy-class, the best the Federation can field? Nothing more than a gnat to the Collective. The huge, faceless, alien indifference of the Borg made them truly terrifying.
And then it all went down the drain. Borg Queen: 'we need someone for Data and Picard to talk to, let's have a wicked witch character'.
And then somebody thought an intrepid class ship could make an idiot of the Collective every other week.
Not in the Polarisverse, mind you. There, the Borg is a force of nature. It was always there and will always be there. It has many shapes, many forms, many faces. One is Sedin. The other is Trelane. None it is true nature. And it will be there till the very end when Mankind will face salvation or oblivion.
