I think that alone makes her an interesting character, but I do see it a little differently than you. What we learn in 8 is just a small dose of insight into her racism. Her quick attraction to Euphie illustrates that she's far more socially and emotionally stunted than we'd really been led to believe. And both lead in to Euphie and the SAR, her death, and Nina's quest for revenge rather cleanly, I find.
