Watson and doyle are not the same person my bean. The in-universe ignorance from multiple officers just compounds the issues.
Bajor was not a federation member - hell, not even an independent planet at that point, certainly not before her comission which meaning special dispensation and that usually comes with a shitload of cultural information.
Picard literally states he read about Bajor as a child, the naming convention was a huge gaffe.
The federation is not supposed to be punitive. She served time for the Garon II mission, and the fact she still had any position in Starfleet means that should have been the end of it.
Cracking the shits at her after she went rogue with meeting Orta? Totally excusable. But riker was swingjng his dick around needlessly as soon as she stepped on board.

Which would have been known to her commander in a normal assignment, sure. But the very beginning of this episode made it clear that Riker and Picard were not aware she was coming aboard until she requested to beam aboard.

My grandfather fought in Korea, and told me stories when I was a child. I watched MASH into my teens. I had classroom lessons on the background of the Korean war.

She didn’t complete her sentence. She received a conditional pardon, ostensibly contingent on her assistance in tracking down “terrorists”. Her return to duty was supposed to be temporary. The only reason she was out of the stockade was because Starfleet supposedly needed her.
I feel like you ignored my Derek Chauvin analogy when you referred to Ro as a “troublemaker”. Riker wouldn’t refer to Chauvin as a “troublemaker”. Riker would call Chauvin a complete bastard. Justifiably.
