I don't buy it. They've been using Fluttershy's trait as a crutch to a point that it is just tiresome because you know it is going to return out of convenience. This "baby steps, everypony" could have been brought up in Season 2, not after she already accomplished quite a lot to work with her insecurities. And instead of stating that she has stage freight, they could have derived that into Fluttershy having anxiety about being complimented or feeling she would not live up to those compliments. At least it would bring back something from Season 1 that didn't feel so tacked on as "Suddenly scared, got over it, now I have it again" theme.
