Might you, if he find a better reason along the way, he should do it, a writer doesn't have to stick to his gun no matter what, even if it require a bit of retcon and twisting continuity. Continuity shouldn't get into the way of a good story.

I'd say tulip should get most of her answers by the end of season 2 or 3. After that the story can go on with other motivation on why staying on the Train or take a new turn by having the real world impacted by the universe of the train, playing on the "you can never come back home" concept and now having to deal with a changed home and being the one with the keys to help it get better. But I am getting ahead of myself, there.
I just hope he doesn't go the "failure is the only option" way.
