tailors traditionally sit cross legged like this (incidentally the constant pressure on the edges of the feet leading to deformities is how ‘tailor’s bunions’ got their name). a lot of traditional tailoring can’t be done by machine and it occurs to me that this would facilitate lots of time to catch up on the feeds from bugs i’m sure garak has hidden all over the station (the real ones, not those hidden in obvious-enough-places for Odo to find). and of course, there is that added special delight i think he’d find in the knowledge that he excels at, and finds a way to make useful something Dukat meant to be a humiliating punishment.
