Possible Children of Khan Episode?

For anyone unaware, there was a new Na'kuhl operative blog out that features the Children of Khan (or whatever name they were going by at the time). See here: arcgames.com/en/games/star-trek-online/news/detail/9985053-star-trek-online%3A-purity
However, this one wasn't dealt with like in previous blogs. Leaving its fate with the Children of Khan, a mystery. This could be very dangerous if this Na'huhl gives Khan future tech (See the Enterprise episode with the Na'kuhl). Undoubtedly someone is going to have to go back in time and "remove" this one. Might as well be us!
Your thoughts?
Edit: I removed parts of the post pertaining to "them", because apparently people lack reading comprehension, and thought that I wanted "them" in-game.

Anyways... while an interesting idea... ultimately the Blog was another one of those story posts like the ones we've had before that gives us insight into things happening in the game universe that our characters aren't involved in.
Yes, but we could be involved. Think about it. All the other Na'kuhl were "dealt with" in their blogs. This one wasn't. Why? It could easily be a teaser for a new episode. It's what I would do if I was writing these blogs and making this game. Make the players/blog readers complacent and think these blogs are just some side-story, then BAM part of the main story!

This episode wouldn't feature them, it would feature the Children of Khan. I was only using "them" (Edit) as an example of how things could go wrong if we let the Na'kuhl operative mess with events of the time like in that one Enterprise episode.

I didn't word it well but I meant that... by what little information we have Khan Singh was way way worse than Hitler & Co. if they won't go near that why would they have the stones to go for something WORSE
STO's second biggest audience is Germany. And in Germany, it's a big no-no to have anything to do with "them". I'm certain that those particular show episodes featuring "them" were banned in Germany.
Can we all please get back on topic though? I think this is a legitimate discussion and i don't want the thread locked.

We are on topic, thats my point to your question, you're not comprehending. If Cryptic wont feature *those guys* and Khan is worse than that, why would they risk the mobs for it? I mean I'd love to see the eugenics wars fleshed out more and an arc on dealing with that, but I can't see Cryptic having the stones to wade into the darkness like that. The few episodes we had where there was some moral gray in play are gone now. They even hand waved away the restoration of Romulus in a very very generic way.
My point is that the Children of Khan aren't "them" and that makes it okay to have episodes about it. The point is that people are touchy when it comes to history. The fake eugenics wars will be fine to cover.

except we never explore those sides, we're just off chasing the "ebil time badguy" to maintain the feddie bear timestream. We dont actually stop and look at what we're doing. We just chase off an kill
edit:
or let our voiced NPC do the kill while we grab the shiny doodad and save the future from the morally righteous side
You must not have played the last Iconian mission. In that mission we are literally sent back in time to kill them before they become bad guys. We then have to explore if that decision is actually morally right (it isn't), and then still find a way to fix things.

and you complain about my reading comprehension skills... lol ... try rereading that last post mmkay?
The NSDAP has been shown on trek a few times, it's just one of those things that should have a part to play in the game as well, in a number of european countries most stuff related to the NSDAP is banned unless its for historical reasons, star trek has been known to show such stuff for historical reasons because of atrocities and propaganda and so on and i cant see any reason why cryptic shouldnt try an episode or 2 with the NSDAP involved in a time travelling plot that gives a real historical observation of how to avoid certain aspects of bad leadership and such.
people dont need to be hand held through life and uncomfortable stuff.
Been around since Dec 2010 on STO and bought LTS in Apr 2013 for STO.
*points at the uproar over Obama visiting Hiroshima*
You might want to mention that to reality.... the concept that "Everything isn't meant to be alright" is lost upon people anymore.
Wait, what does Germany have against Voldemort and the Death Eaters?
UHURA: Message, Captain. Starship base on Caran 4 requesting explanation of our delay here, sir. Space Commander Dominguez says we have supplies he urgently needs.
KIRK: Tell Jose he'll get his chili peppers when we get there. Tell him they're prime Mexican reds. I handpicked them myself, but he won't die if he goes a few more days without them.
Yeah, so the other stuff ain't happening.
l don't know.
l really don't know what l'm about to say, except l have a feeling about it.
That l must repeat the words that come without my knowledge.'
IIRC the prohibition is against displaying "them" in a positive light.

It's true. I knew a guy that made good money smuggling episodes of Hogan's Heroes into Germany.
"Pawns of Eugenic Codes"
"Children of Eugenic"
and final chapter, "Legacies of Eugenic" this chapter lead by Doctor Bashir as narrator, since he is genetic enchanted, they would be given a second chance to be back with federation, and most of bad guys eliminated or captured.
not all enchanted humans with eugenic codes are warmongers like Khan was.
dont forget klingons were effected for 2-3 generations before revert back to natural state while they appear as nearly humans.
To bad Samuel L. Jackson wasn't around back then... "ANT'S ON A PLANE"

Anyway, this isn't really the topic of the thread.
I know that the devs had plans for something involving the Augmented / Khan legacy. The possibly last in-game example might be that prison facility episode in the Dominion Arc. But so far they never completed any actual work on it.
The blog might just be an attempt to use at least a bit of their ideas somewhere - or it could point to more in that direction. I like the idea of an Augment storyline more than that of the Temporal Cold War...
The power of science, of course.
