Yes, I know, Karen and her URs. Maybe it's illogical but I think Karen has it in her? Or maybe I am just full of wishful thinking? I don't know. But as you said, Mariah has already been to Worlds and have not succeeded, and Amber is a wild card to say the least. I guess I am saying Karen is all that is left...
Regarding upgrading her TES if you look at both Karen and Mariah neither have meaningfully upgraded their TES since their first Worlds which was 2017. Below is based off the protocols for the 2 competitions, the BV and the score after GOEs added in:

SP TES BV | 32.24 | 30.65 |
SP TES after GOEs | 38.35 | 35.13 |
FS TES BV | 59.05 | 54.96 |
FS TES after GOEs | 65.98 | 66.29 |
Mariah
2017 Worlds | 2020 Skate America (Domestic Scoring) | |
SP TES BV | 31.16 | 32.39 |
SP TES after GOEs | 32.16 | 40.80 |
FS TES BV | 59.00 | 55.59 |
