It doesn't
Tell that to the Walking Dead.
Nope.
He's not a hero. He didn't get 100 years ro change. He was thrust in and said "he's changed."
Doesn't wash.
He showed up like...3 or so times in a major capacity and died in his last appearance. So no, he wasn't a major recurring character who played a big role in things the way Seska would have.
Also, that's the reason why they didn't do a Maquis Mutiny. Because they wouldn't be any reason for Voyager to NOT just dump the mutineers off somewhere and never look back afterwards.
Well, the audience continues that trend today so quelle suprise'. The more things change the more fans stay the same.
Then they have no one to blame but themselves. Not that they'll ever learn this lesson.
