I never thought about it before, but it is kinda funny that Picard or Riker are always the ones issuing tactical commands and Worf is apparently just there to press buttons for them.
That was specifically what I had in mind while writing that comment lol
Like, why is he even there if he has no actual function beyond suggesting strategy (that the captain politely dismisses virtually every time). Might as well be an advisor like that fold faced stratagema player then

“Captain, I recommend that we…”
“No.”
“You all are so invalidating to me!”
“Well, now you know how your son feels, Mr. Worf.”
Worf: “Who?”
“Precisely.”
He’s there to get beaten up by aliens to quickly establish that they are tough and serious enough to beat up Worf.
Unless it’s a Klingon-centric episode, in which case Worf holds his own, despite not having grown up in their warrior culture.
