The Aetherians: What's the deal? (startrek.website)

I'm just wondering if there are any theories as to what's going on with the Aetherians.

It seems pretty obvious that there's a shoe yet to drop, but what is it?

My personal theory is that they themselves are a multiversal Borg variant, at war with all the others.

Yeah, it's just sort of...meandering.

I think I have a bit of Borg fatigue, and also multiverse fatigue, which does not help.

If they really wanted to do a mirror universe Borg, they should have done a true mirror version, like they only accept those who are willing to join and their purpose for assimilation is truly benevolent. Each "drone" is still an individual, they can leave the collective at their own free will, and their existing is to help understand and advance society.
