I have never liked the Ultimania timeline. I know it's "canon" (or at the very least supplemental canon) but there are too many bits and pieces that don't fit with the world as it's presented. Lulu's age is off, for one thing -- it's strongly implied in conversation that she was older than Wakka when their parents died. And something seems very wrong to me about the idea that there have only been four High Summoners. I tend to not pay it much mind. If that means some people disregard my writing as AU, so be it. Anyway.
I also agree with you about giving Lulu a "reason" to be tough and somewhat abrasive. There are women who are like that in real life without some trauma at the core; why not Lulu? Maybe it would be less bothersome if it were less "oh, yeah, that again", but the cultural context is there.
