The main issue with reentry is heating from air friction and resulting damage.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard Feynman
As I understand friction and reentry, objects burn up from air friction. If she was moving fast enough, she could have started to burn up despite going into a lower oxygen environment
