* DoubleStandard / FauxActionGirl (from a production point of view): Troi and Crusher don't get to swordfight even though in reality, Gates McFadden and Marina Sirtis were the only ones of the main cast with stage swordfighting experience. The director claimed it was because women in medieval times wouldn't have been swordfighting; however, Troi and Crusher weren't "playing" female roles, but rather were members of the Merry Men (and dressed accordingly).

This is an Averted Trope, and it's also dubious. Stewart fences in a previous episode, and it's highly unlikely that he didn't have experience from his stage career..

Their casting had nothing to do with famous swordfighting skills.

* IronyAsSheIsCast: To this day the episode is plagued by the undeniable sexism of refusing to let Troi and Dr. Crusher sword-fight in the climax, despite both actresses being among the few cast members who actually had sword combat training. While a doctor and a counselor wouldn't seem to have a reason for such skills, it's not as if there isn't an in-world explanation, after we've seen them both take part in Worf's ''mok'bara'' classes--clearly they're both interested in being able to defend themselves, whether for away missions or other reasons.
