I think Tuvok learned it much earlier, seeing Janeway effortlessly use emotions logically and logic emotionally which is what made him want to stick by her so strongly. I think that's the thing Vulcans most admire about humans, and what ultimately made them agree to form the Federation with Earth and two of their former worst enemies.

@StarkRG@myside-yourside.net @Phangurl@vmst.io Nice exploration. 😎 And, I think T'lyn and Ma'jel (from LDS & PRO) are also fantastic Vulcan characters on a similar journey to what you describe. Both express initial disproval of humans. But I think that is mostly becaused they were socialized to react that way. Over time they prove to be curious to learn from humans' perspective! (Not just humans actually, various non-vulcans) But basically, they see the value in what they were raised to see as irrational behavior. 🖖
