It's the same in AKB. Some girls get promoted, others don't, not matter how hard they work. Sometimes you just don't have the right appeal or whatever. The point is that you don't have total control of your fate so doing your best and not giving up doesn't guarantee your success (you still should do your best and not give up though).
To me it's like Nagisa is just refusing to see how things works. And instead of trying to understand what Chieri is going through, she just pushes the issue away. She won't help anyone that way.
Nagisa's reality check will come when Yuuko learns about the 77th performing "Nagisa no Cherry". Yuuko's dream will end in failure and Nagisa will have to face reality. Cue character growth.

I see Nagisa's "it's not about winning and losing" in a different light. Cheiri's focus shouldn't be that she didn't make the Kirara glow all this time even though Nagisa did (os so Chieri thinks). But rather on what she would lack and need to change that.
Like Nagisa said it isn't about who of them wins or lose. Actually is very likely one will always be better to the other at some things if they're both trying hard. And different from Yuuko it doesn't seems like Chieri dream is to become the best/most skilled girl in 00, but rather just want to become a part of it together with her dear friends. If the important part is that all the 4 gets in together, who cares which one of them is regarded as better of the 4? The important part is that each of them individually is able to reach the level and what is needed for becoming a successor, regardless of who does it first or who does it better.
