That’s the thing. Picard has a trauma. She lost her identity, childhood, sense of belonging. It’s entirely different.
Like Bane said, “you merely adopted the borg. I was born in it, molded by it. I didn’t anything of humanity until I was already a (wo)man.”
Edit: Also, isn’t it addressed at some point that, for 7o9, her trauma was actually to leave the borg and not being in it?
That's her initial trauma, yes. There's layers. Like an ogre. She uncovers more as she regains her humanity.
I always cry when I peal the layers of an ogre.
I love this autocorrect.
Picard spent his childhood on an old timey vineyard in France, playing and laughing and picking grapes. Seven spent hers in a maturation tank until she was big enough to be a soldier.
