Was Sarah Douglas written out too early?

Recently, I thought the exact opposite: that Sarah Douglas had been on the show for too long. Why was she the only one of Richard's female confidantes included in the opening credits (in season 4)? Pamela actually had far less to do in season 4 than in season 3.

I would have preferred Richard to have a new female confidante each season—until Garth arrived. In season 4, I would have made Lorraine Richard's confidante. She should have wanted to get into the business and revealed to him that, even as a child, she had overheard "dangerous" conversations and phone calls and was curious about that danger. Richard would have initially resisted involving Lorraine in his business but would have relented, especially after Pamela's death. As for Pamela, it should have been revealed shortly before the season 3 finale that she was an excellent pilot, so she would have become Chase's co-pilot on the flight to Italy and die in the crash.

Sarah was an interesting addition to FC, after her role in Superman. However yeah she did not really get up to much in 1984 to 1985 so the end was near and Martine Beswick only showed up to reveal Pamela was the most injured in the explosion/the culorit, complete with a tweaked face.
