      Sew? Who sews when they have replicators?

      Do you think Garak was really able to stay in business being a plain, simple tailor? And that was 800 years earlier.

            Weirdly, we see it happen in the 23rd century before replicators were invented, so it was a “synthesizer”, not a replicator.
