@Anon Respectfully, I must disagree with a couple of your observations. In Swarm of the Century, the Parasprites were merely eating up everybody's houses and food and just about everything else, but they caused no physical harm to the ponies themselves. None of the ponies besides Pinkie Pie knew what to do to stop the Parasprites, Rarity was merely trying to protect what she could before it was too late, as was probably every other pony at the time, so I don't think "ditching her friends" is the right way to put it, respectfully. And Rarity just got carried away with her wings in that flying competition. True, she should not have entered to begin with as supporting Dash was her bigger priority, but I don't think she actively sought to put down Rainbow Dash. She did fully apologize for her actions in the end.

Dash is incredibly loyal, no doubt, but even she has her lulls. She actively cheated against her best friend AJ in Fall Weather Friends, she let her ego get the better of her for a bit. Also, she kept ragging on Fluttershy in Dragonshy for her meekness, which was at some points uncalled for. I'm not accusing Dash of disloyalty, she's incredibly loyal and I love her for that, but she and Rarity have both had moments where their own faults were evident, but that does make either one more or less loyal than the other. I think all the ponies are incredibly loyal to each other on more or less equal grounds.
