I think it's poking fun at the controversy surrounding the authorship of Shakespeare's plays. There's a whole bunch of theories about who actually wrote them/who Shakespeare actually was.

  • I mean, it's completely possible in the Star Trek timeline that Shakespeare actually was a Klingon altered to look human and then sent back in time for some reason. The doctors make people look like other species fairly regularly, and time travel is a regular plot point. There's no canonical reason why Shakespeare couldn't have literally been a Klingon.
