    Do you think the humans acting all “logical” is psychosomatic? They’re less aware of the cultural history that lead to Vulcans suppressing their emotions and acting logical, so they think that logic is more of a racial trait, and thus act logical.

    There is a bit of a precedent of logic being genetically encoded with Star Trek Prodigy when
