True on the CA's part.

She had been nothing but a student and brand new FO. Always being told what to do and how to do it from an experienced flight instructor and later closely monitored by a very experienced CA (relatively). She probably never voiced her concern for the upcoming situation. She obviously, didn't try a go around. The CA finally acted... way too late.

She rarely has had to make a decision for herself as PIC, much less question a "mentor's" decision. Partly due to her lack of experience, she was quietly along for the ride.
