Yes, there is a perfectly good reason this site is titled Synthesis. Taking Amuro as the thesis and Char as the antithesis, Sayla is the peftect synthesis.
The Hegelian dialectic, by the way, is what Karl Marx used to base his theories for communism and scienfic socialism.
No matter what you think, Sayla definately deserves a shrine. She may be confused and misguided at times, but she is a strong female lead with a completely believeable mind set.
