A good reason to stay in the Delta Quadrant?

After seeing various episodes when Janeway could have easily asked for or brokered a lift to Earth (example being the Q in Death Wish),I'm not gonna ask the obvious question as to why she passed these chances.

Instead,I ask this;What event in Voyager sticks out to you as a good reason to decline a lift home?And why?


Ill reference the Caretaker itself as a reason.Assuming there was no way to blow the array after leaving,I'd say condemning a society to death so I can make it home in time for the news is the wrong choice,so that's a good reason to avoid going home that way.
 
To avoid the Dominon War is a good start, however, I just can't see Janeway doing that. To maintain a Federation presents in the DQ, making many First Contacts for the in the process, to explore the unknown. I suppose there would have been several reasons to hang out in the DQ.

In "The Voyager Conspiricy" Seven came up with all these reasons that Voyager was supposed to be in the DQ to set up some kind of Federation outpost for other Federation Ships to eventually join up with them. In the end there may have been several legimit reasons to stay in the DQ, I suspect the crew would not have been to happy with any of them however...
