In Deja-Q when the Calamarain showed up to get revenge on Q because Q had tormented them in the past and gotten away with it, what would have happened if Picard just abandoned Q right away and turned him over to the Calamarain to deal with their justice?
Surely Q deserved it, but this would of course deny Q the chance to save the ship and prove himself worthy of being a Q with his noble sacrifice, Q dying in mortal form might have had a great impact on the Q, on the downside the Humans would be on their bad side.
Q on the other hand might end up going to Sto'Vo'Kor or Gre'Thor, that could be a fitting reward for Q.

Q would be dead and that'd be that.
It is only to the Q we get to see that humans are so interesting. To the rest of the continuum, most lifeforms are really below their care or notice.

Yeah. I don't think Corbin Bernsen would take over tormenting Picard.
RIP Gene Wilder. One of the funniest people of all time. RIP Matt Roberts. You were great.

But then Picard would have died in Tapestry.
