It’s nice to see an educated opinion on this forum rather than the usual one liners from the angry brigade.
Frankie is nearly 18 and you don’t see the same body technique in 8 year olds.
It’s about what is taught when. Its why primary school children are not taught clubs.
If you check out the little ones in the Moscow Baby Cup you will see them doing their dead bendy routines because that is what they are taught at that age. That is what Daria Andronova was doing at their age. As her joints and tendon attachments mature her training changes and you see what you see.

I still think you are very astute to see ballet in her rope routine, most ballet dancers and teachers would scream in horror if you told them that was ballet.
