> adding a queen to the Borg destroyed the Borg

Agreed. The Borg used to be scary because they seemed unbeatable. They were like grey goo that could adapt to whatever you threw at them.[1]

Having a queen gives them a single point of failure. Suddenly they are a lot less scary.

[1] I kind of felt the same way about the Boogieman from Ghost Busters when I was a kid. Teleports between closets and the regular ghost trap doodad doesn't work on him! Shit!
