Ohoho, that is indeed correct.

While genetic engineering allows humans to tamper with things quite a bit, variations in how genes are expressed is simply an unavoidable part of biology.

And, like others already said, she might have been a first-gen avatar driver. If there are new avatars in the sequel, I will be curious to see if the newer ones have been "improved" to make them appear more like the Na'vi cosmetically than the older ones.

While it may only be cosmetic, it might make the Na'vi feel more at ease and less "creeped out" by the Avatars, since to them they would look more like their sense of "normal".
