Rosa is way overrated. Nobody is winning big tournaments with her, even with Diddy out of the way. She benefits greatly from people not understanding her mechanics and playing against her incorrectly, but that isn't a real strength. Rushdown characters dance around her neutral game and keep Luma dead. Without customs, she can find herself in matchups where she must approach without any good options (Yoshi, Shiek, etc).

Customs definitely benefit her, but it isn't clear how much. Sure, shooting star bits force an approach, but they don't do anything to help with her hard matchups (rushdown characters poking at her and Luma). Luma warp is a great KO tool, but she loses considerable spacing options and many desync combos. Regardless, it says a lot when gaining a worse version of Shiek's standard special can bump even an already strong character like Rosalina up the tier list.
Yeeeeah, no.

rosalina is stupid.
