    Given that they all generally seem to get away with it, I wonder if it’s actually more of a frequently bent or broken guideline than a strictly enforced law. Do we know if non-protagonist federation starship captains act and get away with similar?

      The pirate’s code Prime Directive is more what you’d call guidelines, than actual rules.

      This feels like a “what happens in the Gamma quadrant, stays in the Gamma quadrant” sort of thing.

      No one immediately comes to mind. Has someone been court martialed and/or stripped of rank? As far as melon scratchers go, that’s a honey-doodle.

      Edit:

      Already an admiral, but it should count.
