I would be very surprised if honor and decency didn't prevail in the end somehow. There's always been a certain tension about how Star Trek is written... Roddenberry's core vision was of a future where people work together in harmony. So then how do you write stories for that universe? Stories need conflict, and having the good guys fight external enemies and never each other (or themselves) can get stale and make the characters seem unrealistically perfect. But however much you pull in the direction of making things darker and more conflict-laden, you can't completely snap the rubber band and never return to harmony as the underlying theme, or it just wouldn't be Star Trek anymore. I would find it shocking if the writers of this show didn't know that, but we will see!
