What if the people who are using the transporter are in fact being killed but they're just recreated again? There's an endless holocaust going on in the universe of Star Trek.

They've still had millions of years of divergent evolution tho, none of these fuckers should be able to interbreed and the differences should probably be a bit more dramatic than slight variations on nose ridges.

The guy who made the Babylon 5 tv series wanted to do a reboot of the Star Trek franchise (before J.J "king of passable movies" Abrams got his hands on it) that took it for granted that all the major alien factions in Star Trek were related and the show's central storyline would concern this question as its ultimate story arc.
