I don’t watch this show so I don’t have a horse in this race, but the idea is that there are few enough opportunities for Asian actors already. Brie is a good actor and widely beloved, there will always be another opportunity for her.
You say they don’t whitewash the character, but then you say they only address the character’s ethnicity once. That’s a bit contradictory isn’t it?

Poor choice of words. The ethnicity wasn’t a major characterization.
