Is that Kelvin Spock?

I would have liked to see DS9 explore the Romulans more. After what they did for the Bajorans, Cardassians, Klingons, Ferengi, Vorta, Jem’Hadar and humans, it does feel like something of a blind spot how they didn’t delve too deeply into their culture, even in the episodes highlighting them in the Dominion War. I still say Martha Hackett’s T’Rul would have been fantastic to keep on board as a recurring guest. Just think what her dynamic with Worf would have been like a year later!
