Sisko being a screaming loose cannon is incredibly over-exaggerated by the internet. I can think of a reason why... Really he only has a couple episodes that have him being kinda off his rocker. What really comes to mind is when Dax got him to 'be the villain' for that one traitor guy and have him biobomb a planet. That was just insane and I don't remember how he got away with it.

He's actually probably the captain charged with grounding the most crazy people. Dude's gotta put a leash on a 700 years old narcissist, an enhanced doctor who's too naive to know how dangerous he is, a literal terrorist, a literal spy, a religious ancap, a cult, a loose cannon my-own-justice security officer who's a member of the super-species they're at war with, a war... and on top of all that, he has to balance fatherhood.
