Maybe but even in our own history such events from the distant past are seen in a fictional way. May still believe that Lincoln freeing slaves wasn't a political move to increase the number of soldiers to fight in the Civil War but rather a move of humanity or the fact we believe the myth no President owned slaves. Not to mention Washington crossing the Delaware is seen as if he's crossing some great ocean and not some river you could throw a rock across and hit the tree on the other side.
Facts become twisted fiction in many ways over time.

Other than telepathic abilities they didn't use anymore, the Ocampa really have nothing to offer.
But, if lifespan factored into Borg assimilation math, their main Federation target would be Vulcan, not Earth.

But age span would be one of several aspects the borg would take into consideration.....

Well to answer that.
Borg die anyway being that they are still partly organic, what would be important is the knowledge that each species adds to the collective.
If you remember Seven said each species the Borg assimilate adds to the knowledge of the collective and remains within it even after that beings time has expired. Too them it's a way of staying immortal.
The reason why the Ocampa would be useless to the Borg is that they have no knowledge or technology that would improve the collective. The Borg don't assimilate just anybody, only those they deem equal or superior. The Borg covet Federation technology because we are their equals because we are also thousands of worlds brought together in an amalgam of knowledge & technology. That is why the Borg can't defeat us and we can't destroy them, we are opposite sides of the same coin.

Well, if they would send more then one cube at a time they might have a chance. Of course there wouldn't be much point in having a Star Trek show if the Federation was assimilated. Star Trek Borg would be too dark in tone everyone would say.

Hey, here's an idea now. All they would have to do is hire one person to be the queen or Locutus clone. Then all the rest could be no name extras. Talk about money saving potential. Hire a few aliens of the week to offer some pathetic resistance, some "kool" explosions, and we've got ourselves a show.
