It certainly would have been interesting to see what they did with her over time. I have my doubts that she ever would have become a very deep character, but I’m sure she would have had some decent episodes.
At the very least, they could have done more to explore her background in a more fulfilling way than they did with the episode featuring her sister.

so do i. between the other characters, the writers seemed to struggle to have enough bandwidth each week to develop the show’s secondary characters in the show’s one-off format. it wasn’t until DS9’s more serialized format that even side characters like Zeyal and Rom began taking on more depth and texture. since TNG writers had to spend time developing a whole new story each week, there was less time to spend on character development and interpersonal drama. DS9, often being serialized, could lean on bringing in story elements from previous episodes and then focus more of the writing on character development and drama.
