It was the natural course of things though. It’s a tough choice with no clear answer one way or the other. I wouldn’t call that one of Archers screw ups when there wasn’t a correct answer.
I have less of an answer for this one. It was pretty fucking brazen and bold on Janeways part. However I don’t classify ‘altering a future event you have no awareness of’ equal with ‘gassing the planet so you and your entire collective group of refugees have to go flee to yet another planet’.
If we consider Sisko’s personal vendetta a bad thing that makes us question his authority to lead, I don’t understand how we excuse Janeway and the time travel stuff she pulled to get Voyager home–her actions had exponentially more butterfly effect consequences than Sisko could ever dream of.
