For me, it echoed real life, when someone with power over you wants something you shouldn't have to and don't want to give. It was uncomfortable, and I'm glad they did it.

I think the problem was it was treated as a comedy and not a serious issue which it could have been.

Maybe comedy was the way they got it on air at that time. I seem to remember an article about the size of the bosom they gave Quark--much bigger than Moogie's. I also seem to remember the size of that bosom decreases during the episode.

That’s possible, on the wiki it says there was inconsistency with how different people wanted to do it, so I think we ended up with the mashup of styles.
