I'd like to think its to help emphasize the softer side of her character, making her more than the rough and tumble type, adding to her depth

It’s tricky because Winx Club doesn’t have a lot of Black characters, and Aisha’s character arc often revolves around responsibility, emotional labor, and taking care of others—even more than the other Winx girls. It’s great that she’s strong, independent, and athletic, but she’s rarely allowed to be carefree like Stella or as messy as Bloom. She’s always kind of handling things. It’s not inherently bad for her to be nurturing, but it makes you think why she's always the one with children adjacent bonded creatures. It would've been nice to see Aisha with a bonded creature that was more opposing to her personality.
