@JT It's cuz I'm a massive AJ fan. Seeing her put so much effort into harvesting those apples (basically almost killing herself) then having Twi smugly chckle and do basically the same amount of work in seconds is just...
Is it really that hard to see why it would aggravate me so much?

@Ginger: I still don't see why it's such a big deal that Twilight is more efficient at one aspect of Applejack's job; I mean, it's not like she makes better apple pies or something. But we've had this discussion before and I have no desire to have it again, so I'm just going to drop it.

Is AJ better in any aspect of Twi's job than Twi is?

They are like the others. Strange, hideous, resisting, fighting. Only these were not like the others. They did not die.
@ginger AJ is better than Twilight with learning about friendship and life. (And that mane job of TS).

^Ginger, Twi is basically the third most powerful magic user in the kingdom. Like it or not, applebucking isn't really a job that takes special training; it does, however, take persistence, stamina and strength, only two of which Twilight has (and the strength is magical). You think Twi could clear the whole orchard alone any more than AJ could? Not a chance. She clears much faster, but there's no way in hell she could keep that pace up. I'd be willing to bet that AJ and Twi average about even when it comes to picked apples.
Anyway, it wasn't about Twi overshadowing Applejack; everyone was helping her by working toward a shared goal.

Nah...AJ is a far better farmer over all...and more socially adjusted.

And there's no way the apples she picked were picked as cleanly as the ones Applejack picked.
AJ shook them right off the tree, which means that the stems had to have been weak or loose enough for them to drop right off. The apples Twilight took probably had to go through extra time having stems, twigs, and leaves taken off.
And we know that magic takes a certain amount of exertion. No way she could keep doing that for long.

Yeah, Twilight has raw power, but she has issues using it well. Something tells me that if AJ had the kind of magic that Twilight has, stuff like the screwups in Lesson Zero and Swarm of the Century wouldn't have happened. She's way more stable and less prone to freak outs than Twilight is.
I always remember stuff that no one else seems to linger on
For example, I loved that scene in
SSCS 6 K where AJ lassod the Flim Flam's barrel of Cider over to her, and it landed in a position for her to casually rest her hooves on

To be fair, this whole Princess thing is being played up to a ridiculous degree. I'm honestly not surprised that the executives got involved in some way
