I think the author's are being cautious about calling out someone's appearance. It can be hard to determine if a plastic surgery did happen, and if it was purely cosmetic.

Like if you look at her now, she clearly has a difference nose (more noticeable in more recent photos), but writing "Kristi had a nose job to look more like Ivanka" lands the wrong way if you can't prove that she actually had a nose job, and that it was for that reason. Imagine how bad your ass would get sued if she actually had a cyst or melanoma on her nose, and had to have it removed and then get reconstructive surgery?

Ok, so I just watched the Kristi Noem South Park episode last night, and it was pretty much about this, lol.
