"This technology will be able to send us home! Yay! But, wait. It won't work with our tech/can't be taken off the planet/requires more power than the ship can produce/would violate the prime directive/warp 10 will turn us into giant slugs/ad infinitum." No way that shit flies when half your crew are members of a terrorist organization.
Kinda like having a guy on the island who could build an atomic bomb out of a pineapple, a couple coconuts and some palm leaves who couldn't fix a two foot hole in a boat.
Thought for sure you were going to object to the short lived girl who went on to morph into a 'god', well, at least an alien able to do stuff in ways that would be over our head to understand.
