He'd still be studying to be a pilot, though.
And leaving it all up to destiny is the
inverse of what they're advocating. They're saying "Don't second-guess what you were born for, just go for it. With all your might. So what if you lost at Miss Macross, or what if your family's against it? If you want to sing, sing. Go grab success with both hands and don't let go."

Which just makes her more imperfect. So, for that matter, does that bit where Alto had to save her life because she wouldn't look before she jumped.

She may not be "perfect" but she does whatever she wants and walks all over people i.e. Alto.

It's been established since ep1 that she's a bit of a prima donna. And since ep... 2 or 3 that's she's a go getter.

Episode one Sheryl? Denigrates the flight students and makes a hasty retreat when her fans, whom she appeals to later on when her precious Galaxy that she hates is attacked, are in danger from...something.

She doesn't hate Galaxy. She used to hate her life there, when she was an orphan kid. That's not the same. And leaving some place you "hate" for greener pastures, going on a journey, only to discover there's no place like home, is an old story. Only difference here is that she wasn't especially trying to escape.
Also, what would you have her do at the Vajra attack? Stay there to cause more confusion?
