To me, a good writer can have a girl come in halfway through and decelop her well enough to make her a compelling choice.

Most mangaka completely fail at writing.
No because a romance story is about the designated couple and their relationship, what triangles and harem does is throw a sense of mystry over who the lead ends up in the end but still it should be established earlier and not thrown in later.

When you throw a random girl halfway win you just make everything before the point she entered the story irrelevant because we arent reading a biography, the story structure is set around a specific frame that is not the character entire life, when people "ah yes, I would read it" are either naive because they wouldnt or even if they did, they would happen to be a tiny minority as well ignoring the author likely doesnt want to make a fictional biography, he wants to write about a specific story that have a beginning and a end.

And the argument writers should write biographies is ignoring its not the same structure as other stories nor is something people want to read because if the argument that halfway the "real" story begin then LotR should had started with Bilbo childhood and continued well after the Elves leave Middle Earth (it kinda does but its just a epilogue) and obviously it doesnt because it wants to be about a specific event and stories follow this structure.

What I do see a lot is contrarians that want to break down the story structure because they want to be contrarians, there is a reason why Seo after trucking Suzuka had written himself into a corner and why he never done it again.

She had a arc about how she have to be a "good girl" if I am not mistaken because of how her parents died leading to her not being able to be herself but rather keeping a persona.

Also the one that got rejected had even less of a arc, I get why people latch to archtypes but not to the expense of the story as somehow their ship winning is the only thing that matters (not that I am accusing anyone of this yet), Jimi herself also havent done much, Hakua certainly had a higher impact on the story even if Takane have better chemistry with Inuzuka but I suppose is because they are similar in many ways.

First girl wins is because stories have a structure and having a random-ass girl showing up halfway and win is just being contrarian, the very few times it happens it just leaves a bad taste ... sometimes there are obvious leads and other times there aren but in the end its not up to who is first, there is a world of diference of Uruka and Yotsuba, starting how Uruka was the obvious designated loser.
the best way to avoid it is not having the first girl having a huge focus at the begging, then you can change the trope

I've concluded that not only are Japanese people trope-blind, they seem to actively look forward to trope abuse

Takane would’ve been best girl if she was more romantically invested but she’s the type of girl who would pick her job over you. Jimi is a tsundere which I don’t really like but I like her recent actions and despite being a tsundere she was the first one to confess and she was also the first one out of all the heroines to be there when he was down. Hakua was always destined to be the end game but ig I wanted more out of her to justify her predetermined role

You have a very limited view on writing. That is all I will say.

I would like to comment 2 things on Takane and 1 on Hakua
1)Takane sweetie I believe youre describing being AroAce and still just liking a person
2)Every chapter I feel like we drift closer and closer to Takane being the one Yuu ends up with weird (or I pray the one who makes it to the end is the best boy Vina)

and For Hakua, I think the main problem with her is we havent spent proper time with her in ages. But we have spent so much time with Jimi and Takane. Hopefully we get more of her to justify the choice and help turn people over to her.

Oh what a shocker, the boring main girl wins again as compared to the more fleshed out superior character.

Takane is best girl, and it isnt often that best girl actually wins the MC-bowl, but Takane goes even further to say that they dont even need to compete

NGL i dont remember anything the blondie have ever done in the series, hopefully am just a forgetful person becasue i dont want the "I appeared first so am the one who win" situation.
Tbh, thinking back, unironically Vina has done more for him than everyone else.
