Commandeering a Starship is a ballsy, alpha-male powermove destined (and designed!) to ruffle some feathers, thus inviting both lickspittle and recalcitrant to reveal their loyalties or lack thereof. Starfleet dictates that it be used only in service of avowed Federation goals such as knowledge, justice, and cosmopolitan benevolence. God, rather, dictates that it be used to dictate, full-stop. Universal Human Pwning beats Universal Human Rights six ways to Sunday.
