Minor portion of the story? How is the introduction of the heroine who is clearly going to be an important and influential figure minor? What about her origin? It adds to her character to know how she was at first, which heavily got axed to the point of the anime viewers not knowing what she's really like.
What would you think if certain elements of Kirito's past in the game were axed? Those aren't any more relevant to the story than Asuna's starying. (which is to say, they're both important)
Alas, that's
starting to stretch beyond the anime territory. But either way from a novel or anime PoV, this episode was way too rushed.
