All great examples of mental gymnastics when we have the very easy and simple reality that Yamato will go to sea because it’s her dream to do so.
Hiyori would be the example of the usual arc princess. Even Momo is more in that mould given how useless he was for a good chunk of Wano.
Yamato, even if not joining, would be a Law figure, not a princess. The One Piece damsel in distresses aren’t the dynamic fighting figures that Yamato is

Garp...you're a treasure.
Well done, you’ve managed to arrive at the shocking revelation that not everything a character said will come true.
You’re also throwing in a lot more “possibles” and “mights” now, not the absolute convictions you started with.
Yes, I can admit I’m wrong, we’ll see how well you take it when Carrot continues to not sail with the Strawhats.
I still win cause I got the man I really wanted in Jinbei, so Yamato’s just a bonus.

There’s never been much worry about Carrot’s association with it
We had to baby you and explain that although the dawn is only being explicitly mentioned now, it's actually been happening from the very beginning of the series since Luffy set out from dawn island. It took post after post before you finally understood something so simple.
No, it‘s a really shit argument that makes no sense at all. Where you get this idea that the aftermath of Wano will be Momo and Yamato randomly sailing off into the sunset together in search for allies I have no clue.
The WG is threatening not only Wano, but the entire world in a great cleansing. So it makes perfect sense for Yamao and Momo to go together to rally the nations of the world to finally come together. Momo demonstrating what he learnt about working with others as well as his growth as a leader in organising such a huge allied force. Yamao demonstrating that she can be friends with humans and become someone respected the world over, like Oden.
Can’t say yet until we know why Wano is so important to all these figures and why it had to be shut in the first place.
“Threads.” There’s one thread and that’s “why are the Strawhats important.“ She’ll find that out along with everyone else at the end of the arc and that’s it for her. A short stint as a cover story awaits her, which is more focus than she’s had on Wano at least.
So why is Carrot the one that has a plot about her coming to this realisation? And you're wrong that everyone else also needs to realise this. The straw hat's importance is something that is already known to them. Inu and Neko showing the ponegliffs to the crew, Marco saying they're the real stars. Kin emon declaring that Luffy will stand at the top of the seas...This is all something that's known. Yet Carrot is the only one Oda had go through the process of needing to learn exactly why they're important. That's huge set up. Why you think she'll finally understand this after hundreds of chapters of travelling with them as close friends, and then decide to just go off and do her own thing, I have no idea.
Oh yeah, who can forget that time Luffy said Carrot’s name in a list inckuding Brulee. Memorable.
Don’t give a fuck what names Luffy calls Yamato
And if you paid attention to names you'd realise that like Yamao, Luffy doesn't call Brulee by her name but instead "branch", which would've made it even easier to realise that it was very obviously Katakuri speaking.
