We are venom!!

To be fair, Star Trek borrowed the idea of killing off the qt 3.14 blonde off in that very same episode.

The Spider-Man comics introduced the Venom symbiote years earlier, as Peter's black costume.

was this inentional or was it a means to excuse the suit?

Yeah Peter wore the black suit for years, but Venom was not a character until after the Next Gen episode. It's a very tight timeline fit, but his very first appearance is but a single page thing stuck on the end of an issue. And after that there was more wiggle room to work.

If you're a nerd in the late 80s, are you somehow NOT watching the new Star Trek? There is no way to confirm this, it would probably be roundly denied by everyone involved.

But after doing enough borrowing as a writer, you get a feel for how important sheer imagery is for inspiration. ESPECIALLY when working with a team, so you can just point to it and go "Like that. See what I mean? " Armus, this horrific oily otherworldlyness. "Peter's suit all this time, is alive, and with it being discarded, turns into THAT. And from now on, its one of his big nemeses. What do you think?"

Could be all bullshit. Fun to believe it isn't tho

They probably got sick of Peter having this overly practical solution to problems. The suit could morph and give him clothes, and it also made him a lot stronger. And they probably wanted the old costume back.
