Harry was also the youngest of the main cast, he might even have been the youngest crew member, period. He was fresh out of the academy when the show started. I think this was just a moment when the writers wanted to remind us how young he was. He had never been away from his family without any contact for so long. And unlike Tom, he didn’t have a serious girlfriend. His character is immature at times but it’s done on purpose.
Yeah I agree, probably was written to be that way. Kinda like having the kid or teenager element of the ship. Janeway almost maternal to him, like a disappointed parent with him when he got his alien STI, as well as speaking as captain!
