    Well he did say authorization picard which I imagine is like unlocking your secret vault with your personal key… I don’t think the romulans would be able to say the same thing and get access right?

          Indeed. I forget if the authorization codes were introduced into the show after that or were already established.

          Either way, that episode highlighted why Starfleet ships shouldn’t have sudoers files like this:

          %sudo ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL
