My issue with our Gith friend is trying to fit her into my party given her character. Not in the sense she is hard to get along with, but in the sense that it doesn't make sense. Why is she willing to follow me? Why does she put up with not heading straight for the Creche? Why doesn't she kill SH immediately when the artifact is revealed? I've tried fitting her in but I've never managed to keep her past a certain camp cut scene where I choose to stand back. I just can't resolve the contradictions in a satisfactory way.
I am going to try a run as Lae'zel at some point and she definitely will be calling all the shots then.
