Again, the information pertinent to the topic here was directly told to Seven by Tuvok.
only that the tricobalt devices were of sufficient explosive magnitude (22 terachochranes each) to obliterate the array satisfactorily. it was her supposition that saved as speculation that there was a subspace tear based on incomplete sensor data.
Tuvok provided no more information than was in the pilot episode which we all saw for ourselves. He merely reiterated it in the episode The Voyager Conspiracy.
She was asking why the yield was so high because of her supposition, but he tells her that it was because that was what was needed by his calculations, and he wasn’t 100% sure even that that would have been enough.
The not being sure it was enough is the new information. If he wasn’t sure it would work, it would give a reason why they didn’t leave it up to a remote detonation.

I don’t accept this premise

not accepting your premise, I can’t accept you conclusion
I too specifically recall Tuvoc saying ‘and I wasn’t sure that would be enough’… we can postulate that this ‘new information’ is the reason they didn’t try a remote detonation. That being said, the idea of trying a remote detonation was never discussed in either episode. Either a) they didn’t think of that option or b) they considered that option but decided to stay in the delta quadrant to ensure the array was destroyed.
I am leaning toward a), because for b) to be a reasonable explanation then we should have heard something about why a remote detonation wouldn’t work. Saying ‘not sure if it was enough to destroy the array’ is still a leap away from ‘and so we had to stay in the delta quadrant to see if it worked’

Then perhaps you should watch the damn episode again.
or, perhaps, I don’t care for you attitude.
take your pettiness and silly fighting elsewhere. this is a place to have fun, not start silly arguments.
edit: keep it chill here
Whatever dude. 🙄
buddy, this is a shitposting meme community. if you can’t keep it chill and fun, take it someplace else.
if you want to be serious, there’s a daystominstitute community somewhere around here… but this isn’t the place for it
