Your defense of the chart breaks down:

1.) the author of the chart mistakes tropes for stereotypes (your cliches).

2.) the examples that she gives are often far more nuanced and complex than any of the male characters in the same text.

3.) the author uses real life women (Michelle Rodriquez and Yoko Ono) in the chart. So clearly she did intend to apply it to real people as well.

The chart is essentially just another attempt to use feminism to bash on women. Particularly women of color as most of the women included on that chart are iconic POC characters. (Uhura is in particular enraging.) There is plenty of other meta around this chart that goes into the rest of its problems, but you clearly aren't seeing how it is actually deeply offensive.
