Voyager was also the first show to fully let the characters grow into 3 dimensional persons. The crew of ST:TNG never seemed to exist when they were off screen. The DS9 crew magaged to achieve this towards the end, though.
I suppose I see the reasoning.

But I'm demanding. I want to see compelling characters who grow and change throughout the series. But I want to see that happen in the context of good stories.

Using your terms, earlier versions of track had the latter but lacked the former. From where I sat, Voyager entirely lacked the latter. I'll pass.
