Well, I think the debate is over. DD is absolutely adamant that she does NOT want to skip level 3 nor change gyms. She doesn't want to miss out on doing the shoot-through on bars and the side handstand dismount on beam (without the twist added in L4; that kind of scares her). She also does not want to keep doing the extra tumbling class, either.
Seeing as how she's only 6, she can't really articulate exactly why she doesn't want to skip up but I think it's just a case of too much, too soon. I think she's intimidated by the idea. So, rather than have her burn out and quit before she's 7, we're going to hang back and let her go at her pace. She's very talented and I'd hate for her to lose her enthusiasm for the sport already.
