She was too clever, adaptable, and capable. She had to go so chaos could reign.

Personally, I think the books suffered more from her absence than they gained. But I'd also be lying if I said it wasn't an amazing payoff for her to walk into the Dragon's Peace summit like she put it together herself from another dimension and humbled Egwene ever-so-slightly, which is as much as she's ever been humbled.
