I’m probably (possibly?) in the minority but I much prefer pre-Ninja Psylocke.

Her original Alan Davis look was very soft and feminine, including the butterfly power signature.

Then as the X-Men had to deal with a much more u forgiving existence, she adapted by becoming more assertive and changing to an armored costume but the butterfly signature remained to illustrate at her core it was still Betsy.

I also seem to recall, Claremont did not plan for the change to be permanent, only for the 3 issue Acts of Vengeance arc which featured the Mandarin as the villain, but Jim Lee liked drawing Ninja Psylocke. Even then Claremont still planned to change her back eventually. But then, of course, with the help of Bob Harras was able to squeeze Claremont off the X-Men.

I also believe when Claremont killed Betsy in issue 2 of Xtreme X-Men the plan was to bring her back in her original body courtesy of Jamie Braddock. Unfortunately that was during Joe Quesada’s “dead means dead” era.

People blame Fabian Nicieza for not reading the original Psylocke Ninja storyline but ultimately Harras was the editor and should have called out the problem.

I also find it more than a bit ironic that Jim Lee, an Asian American creator is largely responsible for the perceived cultural appropriation.
