"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.
Yeah, they kinda lost the plot with Kes fairly early on.
Though they could have developed the character better.
Seven-of-Nine was a better character, generally, once they figured out how to write properly for the character.
Neelix should have been ejected into space the moment they met him.
But the Doctor was definitely a highlight of the show.
