    I have two theories. Section 31 was terrible at recruiting covert ops and we’ve seen their blundering over and over again on the small screen. Or, they were very good at covert ops and we’ve only seen the few times they misjudged the morality of their operatives.

    I’m a carpenter. If I do my job well, you won’t know I was there at all.

      I don’t recall O’Brien’s mission as being under Section 31, but rather the Federation’s own special ops. Certain decisions/actions were still above board and part of why it ate away at the chief.

      Your point stands that we’ve only seen them at their bumbling worst. Shouldn’t trust an augmented doctor with a conscience.
