Tell writers what you think, even if you hate it. That girl is NOT Pauline.
Or rather, she's not the ORIGNAL Pauline. As I see it, there's only two ways Donkey Kong: Bananza can be reconciled with the original Donkey Kong lore: if that girl IS Pauline and she gets a mindwipe at the end of the story, OR if she's NOT the original Pauline, but another character with the same name, possibly the daughter or granddaughter of the original Pauline.
There's actually some evidence to support this latter idea: Cranky Kong. Cranky has been confirmed to appear in Bananza, and the first DKC game established that HE is the original Donkey Kong while 'DK' is his grandson. So, baring time shenanigans, I believe the Pauline in Bananza is a different Pauline than the original. We'll just have to wait to find out.
