She echoes. Agrees. In this regard, she is fully entrenched in his camp: prepared to well-weigh his plans, if not prepared to assuredly follow every order. It isn't that Peggy begrudges Captain America his authority, but that orders had never been an issue between the pair of them. His nation's cause did not perfectly become her own until after his death. During his life, she'd been a liaison. Neither subordinate nor superseding. And in his last moments, he'd implored her (of a fashion) to respect his choice.
No. Peggy dares to see herself as a peer to Steve Rogers -- and would never diminish the trust between them by forcing hierarchy where there is none.
"A bit of conversational elbow grease and a lot of patience might do the trick. Wouldn't want anyone to get the wrong idea--"
To think it was a power grab of some ilk, and not a genuine humanitarian effort.
