It certainly wasn't.
"I spent some time with an alien planet which was mostly made out of mercury seas as my base; my altmode was at first merely taken to fit in. It didn't take long to take advantage of and incorporate the hull-panels into my fighting style, however." She had, after all, been able to use her alloys' absorbing and releasing lasers as strong flashes of light even before this altmode, though it'd been slightly more precarious then.
Further, using her camouflage ability was a lot easier with the panels acting as extra shields to "hide behind". She did not need them, she was certainly skilled enough to go unnoticed without them, but they lent some margin of error.
