Balderdash! Janeway was my favourite VOY character. But I also had no problem with her death creating a stronger, higher-profile relaunch.
I was more annoyed by Data's canonical demise, since his death did little/nothing to invigorate TNG.

So... "fairly divided" is not "most".

Sorry, but I can't see how killing of the main character of the show and omitting three others will create "a stronger, higher-profile relaunch".
As for the opinion about the assasination of Janeway, I do think that those who want Janeway alive and well are in the majority among the Voyager fans.
