But from my outsider perspective I don't think her being a white girl in an asian woman's body has matter to most readers in a long ass time. Her being white again is a thing you can easily pull off because of that, and also because it scores you some brownie points with the few people who both know what the fuck happened and think it's racist or something. Which means it's unlikely to be changed back because most writers wouldn't have cared if she was white or asian because it never mattered to most readers and was never a major part of most of her appearances. It was just a weird artifact for readers who weren't fans of the character.
Not sure if people recall Abnder Jenkins, Mach-V and so on. If you don't recall him being the Beetle or in Thunderbolts, you might from Spectacular Foes. Once, during the weirdness of the Nineties, in order to hide his identity from the fuzz, he got turned into a black guy to make the cast more diverse. And it was this whole social commentary thing, he got hassled on the streets, it made things weird with his white girl friend, and so on. Eventually it was undone and it was left behind as just a weird time in the character's history caused by lame attempts to be hip with progressives. I gather this was similar to why Betsy was made Asian too, it just stuck around way longer. But the industry is so different now that "literally turning a character into another race by transferring their mind into another body" isn't the kind of progress check list item it once was. Now you've got make it an AU character or something. Which might be what they eventually do, now that I think about it.
