I remember that the captain Luffy has an open invite for Yamato, and Yamato made it clear she still wants to join but can't just yet.
If you think she's dead in the water you just don't trust Luffy or Yamato to keep their word, and follow their dream (respectively). Silly imo.
Agreed. Anyone who claims Yamato will only join some Grand Fleet in the last 10 chapters or whatever has to answer up to cases like Jinbe, who rejected Luffy’s offer to join, but still expressed interested and did join, not some fleet.

Most of the crew is already background noise, why not one more? As long as she drops that Oden shit I'm fine with her joining
She’s already starting to drop it since she stayed in Wano whereas Oden sailed out right away. Clearly that’s a sign that the Wano stay is meant to further develop her character, and that she’s not just there because of Momo’s failure with that treebranch.

See, this is where you should have gotten suspicious.
It was never Luffy wanting her but Yamato forcing herself in.
Luffy never got to say a word and Yamato was already acting like she is in and declared herself a member.
Jinbei was the only one rational.
Yamato is unique in how she demanded Luffy take her just because she was friends with Ace’s brother. And still rejected him in the end.
Oda def wouldn’t want someone on the crew who selfishly demanded to be a crewmate. Yamato has to be selfless I’d say.
