Poor Data never got a promotion through seven seasons and four movies. The only time he held higher rank might have been the alternate future the Romulans manufactured for Riker on a holodeck to try to trick him into revealing secrets.
During the Klingon civil war, he was temporarily made Captain of the USS Sutherland
This is also where Data shows serious BDE to his racist(?) first officer.
Captain, as in head of the ship, not the rank. He was still Lt. Cmdr. Unless I'm missing remembering the episode
Yeah that's like saying the person in charge of the duty night shift is Captain while they have the bridge. Sitting in the Captain's chair =/= Captain.
He briefly served as Captain during TNG Gambit 1 and 2. And he made damn sure Worf knew it too!
The scene where Worf says “it is I who have endangered our friendship” always makes me cry.
He did lose control of himself on multiple occasions, even endangering the whole ship...
So did Picard, a number of times. "Bridge officer goes cuckoo" is a standard theme. Geordi was turned into a Romulan assassin. Worf de-evolves and kills multiple members of the crew.
And Picard stayed captain as well
