This is why I will always love Romulans, who instead leaned into it: "Hell yeah we're sexy murder elves!" Did this lead to good decisions? No. Do any of them regret the choice? Also no.

Meanwhile Vulcans only work narratively if there's exactly one on the crew. Get a bunch of Vulcans together and it's more passive-aggressive than your midwestern mother-in-law's potluck, and I had my fill of that as a kid.

Every star trek show has agreed that in groups of more than two or so Vulcans are just giant assholes.

I could see a group of Vulcans as a clique on a ship working well, like Lower Decks Delta Shift. Occasional B plots about trying to win against the smug assholes, Take Me Out to the Holosuite style, or finding bonding opportunities with the overly judgemental horde.

One of the best episodes of Lower Decks is seeing day to day life on a Vulcan science ship and you instantly realize why T’Lyn went bonkers while serving there.
