I wasn't so generous :D Everything else was so cut and dried - "Does she do/have X?" - so I took "could she" as a sloppy way of saying, "does she, at some point, demonstrate that she can?" Which would also allow for this to work in ensemble casts if they sometimes take turns being the focus of episodes.
Writing more female protagonists would be great, along with female-all-the-other-roles! (Except maybe female dead victims; we aren't hurting for more of those.) Maybe someone can make a snappy flowchart of all the possible cool roles they could have.
