It feels like his usual "I totally and DEEPLY understand this" type of casual nerd-bragging, with a side of dragging in a friend as his Reason For Doing A Fandom Thing.
The whole thing feels unnecessarily wordy, and uncomfortably assertive. No question marks. It's an imperative with a "please" tacked on for politeness.
"Is it 7 of 9 or Seven of Nine?" gets the main point across immediately, but isn't as attention-grabbing or ~smart~ as a tweet full of words like "autonomy" and "numerals," I guess.
Today he retweeted Sarah Silverman with a comment about his cats hating fireworks. I don't follow him or anything so I have no idea if he makes a habit of stuff like this, but it seems like a red flag for someone with his track record re: celebrities.
