I don't see myself as the commander, so it doesn't impact me in the same way. I see myself as the crew's inspiration. I jump into any crew position whenever the crew needs me. Personally, I wish the developers had put in a commander figure so that we wouldn't get the idea that we were 'only' the commander. After all, we jump into the LIs shoes, and the WO. Why not the commander too? Where is the commander when I'm at the LI's station - does he just disappear? When you think about it, having an invisible captain when it's possible to take over your subordinates' bodies doesn't make much sense.
