Plot hole: Just after the Kelleran soldiers kill all the scientists, O'Brien tries to contact the runabout Ganges for a beam out. Unable to contact the Ganges, he and Bashir use the T'Lani cruiser's transporter to beam down to T'Lani III. He could have used the cruiser's transporters to beam to the Ganges instead (it wouldn't have had its shields up as it was unoccupied and was closer to the cruiser than the planet) allowing them to escape back to the wormhole and DS9, instead of having to await rescue on the planet.

Trivia: Buck Bokai's baseball card, a collectible featured on Benjamin Sisko's desk, had actor Keone Young on the front, in character, but showed "Trek" model maker Gregory Jein, who invented the "history" of the character, on the back. The pair bore an uncanny resemblance to each other.

Question: Wouldn't Sisko have created a paradox by identifying himself by his real name to James T. Kirk before returning to the future?
Answer: No more so than Sisko posing for a photo in the 21st century while pretending to be Gabriel Bell.
Answer: His last name is something Kirk will forget, since he was on temporary assignment and essentially passing through.

Chosen answer: No. He's given his name, that's all. Nothing there that might lead to a paradox. If he's gone into detail about his time travelling, that might cause an issue or two, but simply stating his name does nothing.
