They really should have made Troi a diplomat like her mother. While it makes sense to have a counselor on the ship, the counselor doesn’t need bridge duty. In contrast, an empath who is a diplomat would have been really valuable on the Enterprise bridge.
I love the fact Troi was sat directly on Picard’s left. I felt like it recognized the importance of emotion in being a human and how greatly that affects everything we do. She was like an emotional navigator and as important as the First Officer.
But then it felt like the writers had no idea what to do with her, so she just ate chocolate & crashed the ship. What a colossal waste lol.
