I'm just going to sit back and delight in your putting Nyan and Jonas together, with their shared perspective as academics gamely making their way in a culture that runs contrary to their own opinions.
And yes, I wish Daniel had been there to join the discussion, too, just to round things out. Not because Jonas and Nyan don't hold up beautifully, but because the Tau'ri perspective would've been a nice addition.
Thank you for braving S6 and asking the difficult questions, because SG-1 is at its best when it does ask the difficult questions, but kinda forgot about that in later seasons.
