It seems weird that Chakotay, former captain of the Maquis ship, and Janeway, captain of the Federation ship, are pretty much best pals a couple weeks later, right? He even shows her his medicine bundle. I don’t think they need to be butting heads all the time, but it seems like the writers actively avoid continuity. Rather than things like Maquis/Federation unease or crew morale being an ever present element of stories, they choose to address those issues sporadically, and then forget about them any other time
