Rewatching Season 2, still find the idea of Discovery crew going 950 years into the future a bad idea.
The crew leaving their lives behind to follow someone they knew for about a year, a worse idea.
And for Spock who never spoke to his sister for over ten years, leaving his mother behind, a terrible idea.
The best thing about season 2, it led to SNW.

That's fair. I liked the time jump and the status quo that it set up, even if I had some issues with the initial execution of the idea. My biggest regret of this era ending is that were not likely to get any more 32nd century Star Trek.

And I saw less it as the crew following Burnham and more the crew wanting to complete the mission. To save all sentient life in the galaxy. They were Starfleet officers and knew the stakes. Everything they knew and loved was at risk. It doesn't seem very Starfleet to me for everyone to just say, "yep, you just go on your one-way mission we'll just sit here and watch. Best of luck to you," if they had the option to do otherwise.

YMMV, of course.
 
What would have been really weird is if Spock wound up coming with them and we wonder how he returns back in time...or he was transporter cloned and one traveled forward while the other became TOS Spock.
