Why doesn't Starfleet just employ more Borg cubes when fighting Borg? (startrek.website)

Seriously, with the devastating defeat to the Borg and the Borg uni-matrix, you would have thought that Voyager would have took home some extras cubes, or at least Spheres or Probes as souvenirs. The Borg wouldn't of noticed that those ships weren't Borg, and Starfleet would have gotten some killer Victory Royales against the Borg. Plus, what Starfleet officer wouldn't want to serve aboard a Borg cube? It's not like they're scary, with a lot of points for people to people to fall down, and the abundance of entertainment and personal space on this ship really provides an awesome, no risk and no assimilation whatsoever experience! So why didn't Starfleet employ more Borg Cubes instead of spamming the space bar and blowing them up without second thought?

No bathrooms.

Well, that explains why Seven didn't mind wearing those body suits that had to be a pain in the ass to use the bathroom... the alcove handles it!

I'm sure she would explain how efficient that is.

That's why she didn't want to eat for so long, and it explains why she only eats nutritional supplements instead of flavourful meals or indulgences.

She strives for perfection, and if she has to poop, that poop is going to be perfection too.

Congratulations. You have done the impossible.

I am quite certain that I could have gone the rest of my life without ever once thinking about how ms. Hansen poops.

Yet here we are.

I know STO isn't cannon, but they built up a pretty impressive array of anti-Borg weapons and tactics that I wish would make their way into cannon.

I'm pretty sure that Janeway helped with anti-borg stuff after Voyager got home. Though there isn't much canon content that takes place after all that anyway, and the content that does exist isn't really focused upon the Borg so it's unlikely to even be mentioned.
