    Sure, but my headcanon is more about the underlying reasoning of why they did that. In canon it was out of some sort of high-minded ideals and a unique human ability to build communities and see past differences and such blather. In my headcanon it’s actually more because the Vulcans told them they didn’t think it would work.

      Vulcan: do not touch the hot griddle. It will burn you.

      Human: You can’t tell me what to do! Burns hand

      Vulcan: I will apply medication to the burn.

      Human: I’m not burned! This is what human flesh looks like! Holds up mangled extremity

      Vulcan: …

      Human: …

      Vulcan: …

      Human: burns other hand

      And yet somehow, we make it work.
