I mean, they're right. She was kind of meh. Leia kicked more ****.
What I'm saying is that Padme is more IMPORTANT than leia (esp. since padme is leia's mother).
I agreed with you up until that point. Yes, Padme is an important character, and its surprising she hasn't yet made the cut despite the one-offs. But while she was key to Anakin's fall, her contribution to creating the Empire is nil compared to Anakin and Palpatine.
What's more, Leia is far and away a more iconic character and was far more key to the creation of the Rebellion and the downfall of the Empire than Padme was in creating either.

What affiliations would she be eligible for?
Light Side? yep
Rebel? no
Resistance? no
They'd have to make a new one. like Naboo thingy. hehe, would include Padma, Palpatine, Jar Jar (please no), other gungarbage, and I just lost interest this idea is so boring.
There are already characters that have no affiliation besides Light/Dark side and intended role (Attacker, support, etc.). Namely, Coruscant Underworld Police and Ugnaught.
These characters set the precedent, and to the OP's credit, it is bizarre that they made the cut ahead of many more iconic characters. R2-D2, anyone? How about Bossk, Mother Talzin, General Hux or any of the Star Wars: Rebels characters. I'd definitely take a Destroyer Droid over either of those two as well. But don't let that discussion hijack the thread too much ;P
