In The Last Unicorn, the creature who doesn’t age and die and whose presence keeps the seasons from turning has no concept of regret. “I can feel sorrow, but that’s not the same thing.”
The prophets live outside of linear time. Regret isn’t a thing for them. It’s one of the things Sisko has to explain to them in the pilot episode. A bad decision, and a thing is lost.
If you didn’t know what regret was, you would think it was sorrow. I’ve seen the last two minutes of the show. Marrying Kasidy doesn’t bring Sisko sorrow.
