The part about her not liking most city ponies is interesting, by the way: She did like Babs, and she did seem to like the Oranges despite their lifestyle not suiting her, and two of her best friends are either from a big city or aspiring to be like that; she also gripes about hoity toity, frou-frou and what have you city folks quickly and often. How much of that is just talk? I wonder...
