The Ezri host had a different skillset (counselor) and I think rank. Being as they were in the middle of a war, the Trill can't have been too picky about her field post and her acceptance of the Dax symbiote happened under strained conditions.

/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

Dax knows the deep, dark secret kept by the Trill Symbiosis Commission. They'd be wise to leave her alone.
That gives me....feelings.
They address this directly in the series don't they? It's a plot point for more than one episode. Isn't there a whole discussion between Ezri and her mom in that episode where she goes home?
Besides what everyone else has said, she was also having issues with space sickness and the station was more stationary and caused her less issues.
Terry Farrell wanted to be a recurring character in DS9, she just didn't want to do it full time anymore. When her contract period came to an end at the end of season 6, and no one approached her about renewing it, she decided it was her que to leave. But instead of having her leave the station, they decided to just completely kill her character off. I feel like she may have well stayed seeing it was canceled in the next season.
If only it were that simple. "The problems with my leaving were with Rick Berman"
TLDR: Sexist ass-hat troubled her (among others) enough that she was "let go" rather than allow her role be diminished.
Interesting, I didn't know that. Thanks.
Sisko was Kurzons friend who both Jadzia and ezri were friends with, I think that specific trill rule is to do with having a romantic relationship with a past hosts partner, which is where the issues with worf came into play, it's probably fine for them to be friends, but it would be a fine line.
Was there some kind of behind the scenes reason why the actress who played Jadzia left? I've always wondered about that.
She knew the series was winding down and had the opportunity to jump into a new series that could keep providing a paycheck, namely Becker. Also, because Rick Berman sucks.

Rick Berman was a relentless misogynistic pig who gave Terry Farrell so much shit about her figure and told her she'd end up working retail if she left DS9. She tried negotiating her Season 7 contract to go down to guest star but it fell through.
:(
Ezri wasn’t an initiate of the symbiosis commission. She got Dax in an emergency. She likes isn’t held to the same standards.
