Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Picard | 2x08 "Mercy"

By assimilating Jurati the Borg queen should already have access to the knowledge of the admonition from season one.

This means the Borg will now know about the alliance super advanced synthetic lifeforms which exist "beyond the boundaries of time & space" and also knows how to signal them. This is a species which is capable of moving eight suns around for the sole purpose of leaving a message to others of their kind. A species which can wipe out all life in the galaxy and so on. They also speak about the perfection of synthetic life.

She should know about the newest flesh and blood Soong type androids. That Picard is one. How to transfer a consciousness from one body to another as Juratis expertise was actually required for it.

Jurati also has knowledge of the android created imagination activated tool technology Soongs androids created, which was capable of both un-fusing a reactor core, something we're told was otherwise impossible and also of projecting a fleet of ships around the La Sirena from the cockpit all of which have their own individual warp signatures. This was accomplished without any additional power supply, the tool wasn't required to be installed or even interface with the ship and it accomplished this without holo-projectors or really any of the sorts of limitations which normally apply in Star Trek.

The Borg are also said to have assimilated El-Aurians (Guinans species) in an attack in 2265. Which given the information we're provided in Picard season two (2024) about the deal made between the Q and El-Aurians, the Borg should be aware it's possible to summon Q on demand and there's a mechanism to do just that.

In other words logical consequences don't really seem to apply to Star Trek: Picard.
