It really is about her and her husband and child isn't it? She had an interesting and successful path to cinematography and from what I have read she was building a reputation; people wanted to work with her.

If you read the "gun people" posts in the thread you'd think that they all knew Baldwin personally or had and interacted with him in public enough to back up their claims.

I think you'll find the chain of command people, especially the armorer was responsible for that gun being handed to him "cold". There's 3 jobs on a set that can result in injury or death. Actor is not one of them.
