Even Odo can't become something that big. Mass cannot be created or destroyed.

Because the writers for Deep Space Nine weren't Borgified like the writers from a certain Trek show that gets a lot of love around here.

And it wouldn't make any sense, as Lindley explained.

Even if Odo did have the capabilities to Morph into a Borg Cube, he wouldn't be able to Destroy the fleet as he wouldn't have the Weapons the Borg cubes do

One could argue that we really don't know how heavy that rat was.

Still....if Changelings could *become* ships, then changelings wouldn't need ships to do their fighting.

Odo, can't become a weapon. it's kind of like on terminator 2, with the liquid metal guy. he couldn't turn himself into a gun or a bomb or anything like that.
