You can't call it inconsistency when she is consistently shown to be very strong, and very durable, but not to a level where she can't be hurt by regular people. Aside from Cage, Cap is the strongest person she will have fought. And she had trouble with people far weaker, less skilled, less ruthless, etc... than Steve.
It's a contradiction to tank a full hit by Luke Cage and get hurt by regular people.
Contradictions exists in all media. Reeves Superman lifted tectonic plates, yet struggled with a 300 ton boulder. Supergirl lifting the key yet didn't have the strength to one shot many enemies.
In a forum, there are no inconsistencies in durability. A character will fight at a nearly fixed level.
Again, she tanked a full hit from Luke Cage. Cage is significantly stronger than Cap.
