Miles O'Brien was a tactical officer! Then he had lieutenant rank pips! Then he went to be DS9 and the Defiant's chief engineer! Call! Fold! Call! Fold! I'm inside your heaaaaaaad!
The whole thing with Kira's rank was she was a major in the Bajoran Defense Force, then they up and made her a colonel. When Starfleet gave her a commission so she could go fight in the Dominion War for reals, they figured "colonel" in the BDF is more or less equivalent to Starfleet's commander rank. (Had she still been a major, I think she'd be a lieutenant commander. But still, had Riker told Kira the Bajoran earring is not part of Starfleet's uniform code, he wouldn't be walking out of Ops, he'd be dragging himself out of Ops with the one limb Kira didn't shatter.)
