She's completely canon, but she has no effect on the future mgs plot. Inother words, she's a subplot to give the story more depth. However, taking away that bit of depth won't change the story. Kind of like poetry, there's an overall message with little details for entertainment only. And you're right characters like Eli and Mantis won't be subplot characters since we can infer that Eli is Liquid and the little kid is Psycho Mantis which are character who directly impact future events. Quiet will make up the circle that is the game but she doesn't affect the line within the circle. Please let me know if this helped at all. yeah I agree with you, I think Quiet will have "her own story" but will not affect the overall plot, similar to serana in Skyrim, she has her own story in the "dawnguard dlc" but she has no real impact on the main story that is killing alduin.

I hope quiet has her own set of missions and like you said the will most likely end up dead, since Big Boss himself has said in the trailer that "when the time comes" he will have to kill her
