Maybe just forego a little difficulty (moors to chuso on floor, get rid of the connection before the full twist on beam, and get rid of the clear hip circle with full pirouette at the end of bars) and I think shed have better stamina and execution.

Another example is Kara getting a meh E score (2019 trials) on the cleanest bar routine there because she "isn't a bar worker."

She looks in a rush to finish. And I appreciate the big jumps and hard elements (she has particularly good landings) but the rest needs to be cleaned up a lot (the lines).

She needs better routine construction and there's still time to change some things that can make a big difference: FLOOR - do 1.5 twist through to 3.0 twist and take out the 1.5 leap. Change the single front tuck to an arabian for free connection bonus. BARS - change Clear-hip 1/1 to Toe 1/1 and change the Toe Tkatchev to either Piked Tkatchev or Hindorff. BEAM - take out the L-turn. Change side jump series to Straddle + Straight 1/1 + Tuck 1/1 for reliable connection on the first part, possible huge value series, and being able to remove split elements. Change the Side Aerial combo to Cat leap 1/2 + Side Aerial + Back Tuck. Take out the entire Switch Split series and replace the Korbut with Tuck jump 1/2 for a more realistic connection. With her Full-In dismount, that's a 6.9 value routine and not many places to get deducted.
