I'm pretty sure I saw something on the blu-ray special features about this? It was gonna be too expensive to have the creepy worm alien things as a recurring enemy so they made the Borg as a cheaper alternative.

Too expensive to put one little mark on someone's neck but building Borg suites wasn't eh

lol the borg suits are just spandex with a bunch of random hoses and shit glued to them. no need to animate little worm parasites.

On screen, the Borg are exclusively human in appearance underneath. Yeah, pretty cheap production values.
