I mean, it doesn’t necessarily rule out a convoluted explanation either. Let me tell you the story of a woman named Denise Crosby.
Badgey’s combs
Cold open to badgey in a study, sipping at a miniature warp core as he reads quietly.
Eventually, badgey will announce he has a story for us, he was combing through some old memory files and found an interesting rhyme in the stories - so he compiled them together to see what would happen.
Badgey clears his throat dramatically, and lets out a shrill dial-up sound as the screen fades over to the tale of the combs - compiled entirely of our favorite multi-faced man and one new Combs character because badgey is a dick.
Or not, I’m just stoned and insomniac, disregard me if you’d like.
There’s a few actors in the Star Trek acting community that get recycled and now and then. Cisco’s dad and the guy that played Zephrim Cochran come to mind. I can’t remember their names because I’m bad at names. Oh yeah and the guy that played Odo was in one or two other things too. They do the kind of thing a lot actually.
If you ever see a Star Trek actor in any other TV show It usually means it’s going to be a bunch of others soon enough.
I like to think they had Jeffrey Combes on set every day just in case any actors didn’t show up.

If they keep the mask on and he actually plays the character rather than his usual shtick it might be okay. Disney doesn’t have a good track record of that with their big name actors keeping their masks on though.
