Eexactly. Nevertheless, it's a wonderful demonstration of her power...
But let's not forget our main topic. I think, as much as Galadrielist I am, you can see her not expressing any fear of the balrog of Moria when she hears the news (actually, I sort of suspect her of knowing more than she says, and so maybe even knowing about the presence of the balrog), quite differently from Celeborn, for whom it's not only a new information, but also a thing that scares him, or at least that's how I always took it.

And if it were possible, one would say that at the last Gandalf fell from wisdom into folly, going needlessly into the net of Moria."
