Recently watched a YouTube video where they mentioned the grub-eating Starfleet creeps with the exploding heads were supposed to be the precursor to the Borg invasion. But then the producers changed it up and decided the Borg would be the cube-riding mechanoids we’ve all come to know and love, instead of worm people.

I’m wondering if Trek ever fleshed out the conspiracy storyline on another show? Seems like a lot of potential wasted.
