She was on one of the teams that did if I remember correctly. I believe they split up into three teams and developed algorithms independently from one another. What surprised everyone was when they came back, all three teams had more or less the same image. It’s been a while so I may be wrong on some details. But it wasn’t just her is my point.

For the number of times women were straight up erased from their scientific achievements I think we can keep choosing them to represent the team for a bit.

I'm fine with this.

As long as the team gets recognition in the more formal documents then let the media have whoever they'd like.

It's like doing set up for a show. Let the headliner be the focus but acknowledging the people who made it happen is really nice.

Definitely, I've not heard of any shenanigans with their paper. So they still get credit. It's just not a media headline.
