So that's what the de-con chamber in Enterprise was for. Silly me, I thought it meant decontamination.

Everyone knows that suggestively rubbing gel on yourself while bathed in UV light kills conservatism.

The difficulty is that if you become too conservative on an away mission, you will refuse to de-con afterwards. The unfortunate but only working and thus standard response to this is to simply abandon such crew members on the planet.

abandon [conservative] crew members on the planet.

I think introducing conservatives to an alien ecosystem is against the Prime Directive. Better to yeet them into the nearest ion storm without a space suit.

Geordi can also alter computer records to retroactively assign said crewmate to Security, which cuts down on quetions.
