Battle Lines

I've been vocal that I don't care about "universe will change forever" type of events because TNG episodes like "The Chase" and "Unnatural Selection" tell us none of it will matter. Canon in general doesn't matter to me unless I know creators care about canon. It's all the difference between "Rick and Morty" and "The Good Place." So I don't even like "Battle Lines" for it's implications for the setting. At this point, we don't know if DS9 is any different from TNG. What matters is the human story. Not the story about Mike from Breaking Bad in a well-worn story about retribution. Not the story about a leader of a religion based on prophecy being pretty good at prophecy. But about Kira learning how to forgive herself for learning how to survive and fight. For veteran viewers; is Kit right? Are some DS9 main characters more "main" than others?
