He makes a good point. The problem is that probes would have left a much better impression on the populace than the ship of the damned.

A greater impression, certainly, but I don't think it would have been a better one.

Gee, early Federation sucked.
Wait, actually it sucked all the way through, it just handed out flowers to look nice.

Wasn't Federation. 

I can't stand nothing dull
I got the high gloss luster
I'll massacre your ass as fast

I dunno... I think the Valakians would have rather have taken their chances with a probe.Captain Seafort wrote:A greater impression, certainly, but I don't think it would have been a better one. Humanity's first warp-speed interstellar probe ended up trashing planet it found, as Voyager discovered.
