As a character, Data's skill level's should outstrip everyone. He's been a matching commander for the Enterprise ("Gambit", demonstrating Leadership and Diplomacy), he can (with little or no prompting) tell you boring details of another cultures traditions and behaviours (Anthropology), created another Soong-type Android (Cybernetics / [DL] Lal) and HOW has the scientific mastermind of the NCC-1701-D never been given the skill of SCIENCE?

And if ANY character ever deserved Computer Skill x 3, it's Data (given the numerous and unwarranted Computer Skill x 2 personnel out there who are clearly inferior to him)! Let's give him a Persona to fill the holes in his 1E skill set!
So you'r talking about pure and unadulterated power creep that will make the old Data even less used? Or just a version with a new skill set the Old data didn't have?

Because I could get behind the second version of this.
Definitely meant an uber super Data!

For purposes of avoiding power creep and a binder fodder version of Data. The same effect could be done with events which act as upgrades. I.E. Data's Emotion Chip could be made as an upgrade which showed the growth he made post TV series. As such, Data could become overpowered but at the cost of multiple card plays (balance).

It could also be done via persona swap.
