If we want an explanation so badly, we have the SBS; even non-japanese fans can ask questions ocasionally -I read some in this wiki-. Someone here MUST ask this to him once and for all.

You have nailed most of the examples into the "Faux Action Girl" trope, but note this trope only aplies to girls who ALREADY have reputation as a fighter; if they're newcomers, it's "Hard Work Hardly Works", "Can't Catch Up and "Naive Newcomer". Note that Shirahoshi and her mother are not action girls, for they don't have in-universe reputation as such.
