Not just Ferengi, but also Cardassian, which looks somewhat like a
crossword puzzle, with partially interlocking vertical and horizontal
lines of glyphs that are too many in number to be syllabograms and too
few in number to be logograms. My guess is a syllabary plus
determinatives.

It's hard to tell what is stylised decoration / logos and what is
script, but I think Borg is also something other than a linear sequence
of characters. I may be misremembering and/or misinterpreting, though.
