For such a conservative country it's ironic how woman abuse is so rampant yet barely any action is done. While this nude scene makes them so mad.

I don't think it is ironic. Conservative values privileges the male and preserving the status quo.

Having not seen the movie and knowing Nolan's treatment of women characters, I wonder how the change impacted the film.

You can take away her character and it wouldn't affect the movie one bit. Making her point out to Oppie the Bhagavad Gita was stupid anyway and Kitty/Emily Blunt was a member of a communist party and that's enough justification for the red-tagging plot that would be integral later.

Heck, if it didn't have Florence Pugh, it could have easily been PG-13.

She's one of the few characters in the film that I was able to easily recall when she shows up (and not because of her nudity). I am just confused as to what her place in the overall message of the movie is about.

The part where she has Oppie read the Bhagavad Gita must have been allegorical/figurative, but I just don't know to what end. It's weird, it's striking, but it leaves me wondering: WTF?
