Indeed. The Minbari abandoned the Battle of the Line when they realized humans had components of themselves. The Minbari partially funded B5.
I actually thought B5 was one of the best SciFi on TV at the time. The story arc was such that the first season first episode impacted last season last episode. Very tight interwoven story. Of course we find out years later that JMS had to “loosen things” to accommodate Michael O’Hare’s medical problems. Think how much better the story arc might have been if that hadn’t happened. It blew away its ST:NG competition. You want Clintoneseque moralizing & reasoning go no further the those ST:NG shows. Some of the storylines in B5 made me think JMS was familiar with Thucydides’ “Peloponnesian War” .
