Huh, I'm closer to being Borg than I realized. (startrek.website)

I dunno, I always thought it was meant to mimic organics.

"Cable management" inside the human body is horrendous. So it felt like in the mixing of machine and biology, the machines had to become more biological in the way they worked to function properly in tandem with the Borg biology.

Plus when the cables get broken / damaged, the cube just fixes itself like a biological healing, there aren’t borg drones out working on the hull

I don't know, the drones in First contact didn't had an issue working on the hull of the Enterprise. But Enterprise hull might be an edge case, as in "Not really Borg but soon"-technology.

On the other Hand, the Borg assimilate anything they get their cable management on (eg. the doctors mobile holographic emitter).

But I don't really know much of the deeper Borg lore.
