I try to look at things from the point of view of the characters as a whole when making these determinations. Who benefits from Karai being bad? Just Shredder. Who benefits if she ends up finding out who she is and switches sides? All of the good guys, but most importantly, Splinter.

This is the reason I don't actively 'ship' characters, especially those whose relationship wouldn't be beneficial to anyone. "I like this and this character together because _____ superficial reasons" seems pretty dumb if you would take into effect that nothing good could come of those two being together.
