There were quite a few intransigent foes in Star Trek.

Intransigent can be expressed more colorfully as muleheaded.

intransigent - (noun) - refusing to compromise

Being intransigent all the time usually leads to death, as you go from someone to deal with to being someone to be dealt with.

This particular episode of Star Trek from 1969 really strikes a cord.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Let_That_Be_Your_Last_Battlefield

I remember that episode. I remember his face. I remember Batman. I remember the Riddler.

Though to be honest, I had forgotten his name, FRANK GORSHIN!!

I didn't know that he could sing........

Frank Gorshin - That's The Trouble With Love - YouTube

and now that I have heard him sing. I will delete my u-tube copy of it.

He will always be the 'Riddler' to me.

 

Did you know???

In the Honorverse, HMS Intransigent was an Invictus class super dreadnought with Keyhole gravitics for FTL fire control, Ghostrider stealth and Apollo missile systems. She was the flagship of Admiral Allister McKeon as he commanded the Eighth Fleet's battle line. Long-time confidant of Admiral Harrington, his ship was shot to pieces, and he was killed at the Battle of Manticore.

The Battle of Manticore was a strategic victory for the Star Empire, which eventually led to a peace treaty with the Republic of Haven.
