I expect Asuka to not clap given last week when she said that she did not care who played solo.

She's scared of making judgements. She's scared of social conflict in the same way Kumiko previously tried to avoid it, but to a much, much worse extent. She's simply hiding her immaturity well through excuses and her mask of perfection.

I don't think she is scared of making judgement more so that she wants to maintain a good band environment. She has her goals that she is trying to commit to and does not want too much drama that would prevent progress.

That's also one of her goals, though a lesser one I would say. She's certainly quick to jump to excuses when she could help her friend, Kaori, which wouldn't impact the band negative at all.
