    Yeah, calling it "genius" is a bridge too far. Ill give credit to Sulu and Riker for being good tacticians, but the tactic is so simple even Odo can come up with it. Not to diss him, but he is absolutely not skilled in spacecraft operation, piloting or space combat and tactics thereof, its just not in his skillset, so every tactic he comes up with plays out in the realm of what he can do, and even on a runabout with lots of automation, assistance systems, voice commands etc. he can only do so much.
    And Tilly coming up with the same tactic is somehow genius. Like nobody else figured out that shooting something explosive near an enemy blows them up.
