Agreed that frantic is supposed to be what is expressed, but you can do frantic movements that are still finished properly. She does not.
Um....definition of frantic in dictionary = conducted in a hurried, excited, and disorganized way.
So yes, she is meant to look "rushed", "unbalanced", she cannot hold aesthetic "finished" positions because it would defeat the nature of that stsq.
I'd argue that it is also more difficult to do and express than a beautiful, aesthetic, coordinated but quick movement, like say, a charleston.
Balancing while performing off-balance, off-kilter steps and uncoordinated movement is very hard - in dance in particular, there is a natural flow to movement that the body "wants" to execute which helps one to stay in equilibrium.
