That's where it gets unrealistic really. You CAN make excuses for Negan that mean other people might be willing to accept that he's "done his time"; it was wartime, the attack on the outpost was actually pretty immoral, he genuinely believed his own **** about it being for the greater good, he has done things to redeem himself in some people's eyes (saving Judith, killing Alpha etc.) and also it's meant to have been like 8 or 9 years at this point.

The issue is that realistically none of those reasons would matter to Maggie... there's no way she'd let it go even if in her time away she'd changed so much that she was 100% on-board with his reasoning. It wouldn't matter because it was so personal and that's just how people are... when it's your own family objectivity goes out the window.
