some indication is an understatement, it is stated outright. although it is fair to ask at what point is the technology so advanced that it stops making sense making the distinction. when you can manipulate spacetime and hide yourself at the moment of big bang, i think you are quite close. if you were a god, what power or skill would you like to have that Q does not have?
QUINN: But you mustn’t think of us as omnipotent, no matter what the Continuum would like you to believe. You and your ship seem incredibly powerful to lifeforms without your technical expertise. It’s no different with us. We may appear omnipotent to you, but believe me, we’re not.
