Do you think Furina will get big lore relevancy now that she's only a human? She doesn't have memories of the past from when she was complete and it seems that Hoyo it's only focusing on the fact that she's an actress/performer. She doesn't know anything about the other archons and doesn't have voicelines for them (will she know Venti and Zhongli are archons???). Her vision is unique, but will that actually mean something for her character or was it only to show Neuvillete can grant visions?
Woah-- I was never notified of this, so this is a VERY late answer. In some ways, Furina may still be relevant to lore. She is, after all, the other half of the same person who bested the heavenly principles. If Celestia were to punish someone, it would have to be her. We have yet to see if they are genuinely asleep/dormant, so this would be a precursor to their 'power,' so to speak. At least, that would be how I would tackle her duality. I don't understand why knowing the other archons will lead to lore relevance. While the archons KNOW of each other, they also did nothing FOR each other that we know of. Nahida was locked away, and none of them helped her. Ei made a wrong decision, but neither of the older archons helped her. The gods of the nation are relatively secular. I'm not Hoyo, though; no one knows how they plan to play with her character; this is all just speculation on my part. As for her vision... why can't it be both? If Celestia ever turns off the abilities of Visions, at least (2) hydro being will still have their powers :D.
(Wishful interpretation)I think letting Furina use primordial waters is very intentional. If anything happens to Neuvillette during his tenure, Furina is the only one with 500 years of experience to pick up where he left off. Both their existence is against everything Celestia deems appropriate, so at the very least, /something/ will happen involving her.
