Character mistake: When Picard is explaining the Enterprise to Lily he states that it has 24 decks. Yet earlier on, a crewman had reported to Worf that the Borg had taken over "decks 26 up to 11".

Star Trek: First Contact is about the Next Generation crew facing off against the Borg as they attempt to thwart the first warp drive space flight and their subsequent visit by aliens. During the battle, the Borg Queen is revealed and Data is tempted by becoming somewhat more human. A must-see among the few films that have the Next Generation logo.
Zefram Cochrane: I gotta take a leak.
La Forge: Leaks? I'm not detecting any leaks.
Zefram Cochrane: Doesn't anyone pee in the 24th Century?
Trivia: The set that they use as sickbay on the Enterprise is the same set used as sickbay on Star Trek Voyager. In fact, the character of the holographic doctor is played by Robert Picardo, who starred as Voyager's holographic doc.
Question: One of the crew members tells Worf that the Borg control decks 26 to 11, and stopped when they reached deck 11. Picard says, "We can't get to deflector control or a shuttle craft." I did some research, and the main shuttle bay is on deck 6. So why can't they get to a shuttlecraft? Would this be a plot hole?

Answer: The borg took control of specific areas of the ship as part of their plan. This included deflector control and the shuttle bay.
My mistake. The main shuttle bay is around decks 5 and 6. The Borg didn't take control of those decks until after the beacon was destroyed.
