Does the question: "Did you somehow forget 7 of 9?" read "let's limit the discussion to judging the women based on costumes alone" or say "Lets judge the character's strengths based on why TV producers had them introduced"?

No, the discussion - and even the article is about how Enterprise is claiming to be "a man's man's version of Star Trek" a "boy's club" and feel lucky they got in before Me Too happened.

So reiterating "Yeah, but TV producers really wanted Jeri Ryan to look sexy" doesn't change those facts, or the topic.

Voyager took what producers gave them, and still wrote a deeper look into gender trauma with it.

what? no

I’m judging the tv producers

both had sexist elements put into the show

voyager managed to work around it

and the enterprise article is bait
