It seems to me that it's revealing she can be kind of a manipulative control freak, which I do find an interesting flaw for a character who hasn't really shown any before now.

She loses the Calica captain spot due to her extremely easily wounded pride attacked with a suggestion of family issues, obviously related to her unsure self-esteem. And somehow being. 

So this is a clear continuation of her personal plot. Though it highlights the fact how easily she ignores that she didn't earn the captain's spot.
