Agreed.
Working from memory here, but her "most useful" stuff prior to piloting the helo to safety was making a big sign (which may have drawn unwanted attention), sucking at cooking, planting a garden that ended up being of no use, and getting hoodwinked by
the Colony girl so she couldn't spill the beans on the coup at the Colony. Lots of stuff for people to lose/not have respect for her about.
Then she comes to the rescue as a help pilot. Gets people out of harms way and..... abruptly disappears from the show for the rest of
Season 3 until the finale.
So, those first impressions had a long time to take root and little interaction (as seen by the audience) in the story after she went to Boulder just doesn't give folks the chance or reason to change perspective of her.
Maybe we'll see a new Pegs in
Season 4. Maybe she got some confidence after the whole helicopter escape thing and people will start reacting to the more current circumstances....
Or maybe not. We'll see....
