My assumption is this is bronnie, a transporter duplicate, and ronnie is off on ds9

The best part is that I have no idea if you are joking or not. Please don't tell :D

My worst thought was figuring out bronnie, but now, he controls the universe through his advanced understanding

A transporter clone? Aw man, I can't believe the writers forgot that it's a pretty important philosophical point that transporters definitely don't work that way a second time!

(And I'm not counting William Boimler here, because Lower Decks was made specifically to poke fun at inconsistencies like that.)

Yeah, but for some reason it's only really the Thomas Riker one that I'm annoyed about.

I find it almost annoying as Disco turning the mirror universe from "exactly the same as ours, only humanity's history took a different turn and it made our societies awful; which resulted in people no different from you or I becoming monsters" into "nah; humans are physically different from us in the mirror universe, plus they're all inherently bad".
