I can think of only two basic ways in which Carolina is lucky. One is that she comes from a country that doesn't have a deep field of skaters. She basically earns her own place at Worlds each year. The other is that admittedly this past year, she benefited from a weak women's field.
After those two pieces of luck, everything else Carolina gets has been earned with hard work. In some ways, she's had to work harder than some, because she has had to defeat her nerves. That's a burden YuNa, Michelle, and Mao don't seem to have carried. But this year, she finally won out over her anxiety. Good for her! Everything came together for her, but she was also able to seize the moment. That's due to her efforts.
I hope she keeps going, but several of the other contenders, if they show up in good shape, will very likely do a better job than she. However, you never know! The future is always open, the ice is always slippery, and no victory--or defeat--is assured.
