The point is "should have happened"... or not.
The Gorns: it was in the mirror universe if I remember correctly. Just a
one-shot encounter.
The Ferengis: in TNG it is not stated that this is the first contact
with them.
The Borgs: when Picard meets them in TNG, he could hardly make a link to
the species that briefly showed up 200 years and never again after
that... Time passes and humans forget.

This one is more significant, I agree. But actually it's not uncommon in
ST to have species that are set aside for a long time or even that never
show up again. Although a major threat, the Borgs do appear only in very
few episodes of TNG, not at all in DS9, and quite late in VOY. We have
to assume that Xindis were no longer a problem after that, and that they
did not seek to establish close relations with the Federation. And all
along ST new species are introduced, and very often we may also wonder
why they were never mentioned before.

I don't think so... But anyway it's a detail.
I don't claim that Entreprise is a perfect prequel. But given all the
challenges to build a prequel, I find that they did really well.
