Because she was depressed and people suffering from that don’t always act rationally (which actually is implied in the series itself). And Hugtto wasn’t the first Precure show to address more serious issues like that (nor was it the only kids show in general to ever do so, Japanese or otherwise). As long as it’s handled right I don’t see a problem bringing it up in children’s media. They’re gonna have to learn how to deal with it eventually after all.

Back on topic a season where the mentor was also part of the core team as you kind of mentioned above could be interesting as well.
