And instead succeeding in being a self-aggrandizing politician.

She’s just trying to be professional

You’re the one dating her Glimmer.

Zecora: YES, get on with it!

All ponies are persons, but not all persons are ponies.

Didn’t Twilight learn something, too?

Discord heavily lampshaded twilight’s insecurities. it was brief, but he basically told her that, yes, she’s been “crowned” the princess of friendship, but it isn’t that high up and she needs to realize that she’s still a person, subject to emotions and mistakes like anyone else and to deny that will drive her insane.

Based on What About Discord and The Hoofields and the Mccolts, I think it’s more that Twilight has put what a Princess of Friendship should be on a really high pedestal in her mind, but she’s insecure on whether she’s actually reaching said pedestal. It would explain why she was so uncharacteristicly disappointed when the map didn’t choose her two times in a row in season five, and why she was trying to deny to herself that she was feeling jealous in What About Discord.
 
Thus, in an attempt to prove to herself that she’s “worthy” of her position, whenever she encounters a friendship problem, she overcompensates. Examples would be her bringing a whole “friendship portfolio” in The Hoofields and the Mccolts, and trying to link the events in this episode to her duties.

Twilight adding her daily speech to every lesson someone else learns

And then Starlight reverts back.

Liked the episode, but this speech did seem kind of self aggrandizing for Twilight.

For god’s sake, give it a rest already.
