Also Dr. Pulaski only had one season to explore the character. Illem Garak had the full run of Deep Space 9 and was the audience's window into the Cardassians. They're almost incompairible.

    I kinda agree with that, except that there are plenty of side characters that are far more interesting and better written than Pulaski, yet they might only get a few episodes to establish themselves vs Pulaski’s year.

    So I definitely think it falls in the writing/directing/actor’s purview that the character seemed so shallow and controversial.

    That's a good point, Ensign Ro was only in a handful of episodes over a few series and was way less shallow. Just as controversial. At least the Trekkies I knew back then were not fans of the Bejorans.
