What if she weren't oddly passive?

One of the odd things about the story is just how oddly passive Catherine Morland is throughout the book including her responses to isabella. What if she were more spirited, a more enthusiastic participant? If she were still not approving but swept up enough and left unrestrained enough by others that she could indulge herself in a little Isabella-like behaviour?

I think she would be in great danger of becoming Elizabeth Bennett.
