So? In every type of tournament/contest there are two kinds of people: Those who play to have fun, and those who play to win. Vivio is clearly the former type. Martial arts are just a fun hobby for her. For some, martial arts are their way of life and they take it extremely seriously. Against people who have strong convictions like that, Vivio's attitude won't stand up.

They might not be intending to, but it could still happen. If they coddle her too much, she'll only end up weaker and unpreprared when facing others who'll not be so gentle with her.

But she doesn't, and still goes on about how 'nice' she is. It's not like adopting the same role as Corona or Lutecia would protect her from getting hurt, either - the former got a Starlight Breaker, the latter got Rocket Punched.
It's one thing to just tell her that, but it's another to demonstrate it first hand and have her actually experience it.
