    Not to be too “what if”-y, but if them planting their eggs in hosts allows them to gather some knowledge the host has, couldn’t that be a possible explanation for the Gorn to develop advanced tech?

      I was thinking maybe the Gorn have ancestral memory where hatchlings already have a lot of knowledge from their ancestral line, including how their society works, lots of technology, etc. Possibly due to having memories of previous Gorn, maybe hatchlings don’t view their current individual identity in the same way as other species, and have a very different ethical viewpoint about killing other Gorn, interacting with other races, etc.

      It’s an interesting race, and I’m looking forward to how they might be used.
