But Rarity isn't shallow. I hope the episode is deeper than just that, since Rarity's character is pretty well-developed at this point.

For a less typical lesson, we could have an aversion of the "beauty on the inside" trope. After all, looks reflect what's inside, in one way or another. Not to mention all people have things that are important to them and it should be respectable. In Rarity's case it's her looks, and it's not the same as being vain.

So for Rarity's sake, I hope that the episode at least acknowledges that there's nothing wrong with caring about one's looks. Because there isn't. Or at least I hope it's not that straightforward.
