Well am not well versed with the purans but my thinking is that she had done severe penance to attain Shiv but maybe then she was more determined which gave her the strength to go through the ordeal,
In my understanding she is not completely transformed though she has powers now. To gain the tantra vidya one requires a lot more determination which was what Nandi pointed out to her and requested her to take ample of rest so that her mind and body is prepared for it.
Shiv also had asked her to wait to gain the vidya as she was still not ready for it but on her insistence he went ahead with it.
Vishnu if u noticed mentioned in the precap that Mahadev is aware of everything and if he does propagate something it is always for a reason and so also why Parvati is cursed to be born again for her to attain that knowledge.
The only thing to dispute here is whether this track happens now but I feel more relevant now as she (Parvati) groomed for bigger roles like Kalli, Durga, etc. than later. So I feel the track is quite relevant.
Am sorry this is just my POV.
