Her having a good lifestyle and having major event that we don’t know the history between two characters doesn’t make her a strawhat at all. She didn’t even experience hardship several years desperately looking for friends to accept her and she didn’t even struggle. She had wonderful and peaceful life in zou and she was well respect individual until jack arrived.
But all of carrot personal trauma has already been dealt by with other characters. So, there isn't really any motivation for her to continue on further with the strawhats Not to mention that since the strawhats are taking their first yonko it wouldn’t feel rewarded because she hadn’t done anything to earn it. Plus, she doesn't talk about anything regarding her own backstory that could lead to other arc or the dawn pedro spoke of. Ussop when we are entering ongishima took over her role being look out. Her fight was completely skip over handed it over by someone else. IF you took carrot out of arc it wouldn't change anything at all. Robin might be side character in that arc she at least in important character later in the story. Without her involvement we wouldn't finding clues for laughtale and in alabasta vivi might be dead. The bomb would explode kill everyone including the strawhats.

A strawhat is only a strawhat when they are officialized not before. Carrot personnal trauma has yet to be dealt with. Carrot got slapped in the face by reality who basically said to her : "you are not worthy if you think you have nothing to lose"
The logical following will be to assess this reality slap in any fashion whatoweher.

If you say to a kid, 15 minutes in at a funfair, that he has to "go back home".. what do you think the kid will do if he has the choice to go for another ride ?
