No, you are mistaking mask-resonance for nasality
You see, mask-resonance sounds like it's buzzing around the sinuses and the hollow spaces in the skull, while nasality sounds "pinched" and thin.

As I said, we differ in what we consider "sounding good". As I said, I do have my own vocal flaws I'm very aware of, none of them related to my timbre as it is my innate natural sound, but I'm consciously working on improving them, without the arrogance and sense of entitlement of others who call themselves vocalists yet can't even sustain a middle-upper belt without going flat.

Anyway, another example of the double standard you would find in some voice teachers is Seth Riggs, the person Christina is or was supposedly taking voice lessons with. In march of 2011 he commented on one of his videos how some singers want to do all kinds of runs to show off when singing the American national anthem, and how it is extremely disrespectful. Later on that year when news came out Christina was taking voice lessons with him, some people called him out on how he is working with Christina now but said that thing about people doing runs like crazy and being disrespectful with the American national anthem. You know what he did? He first deleted their comments, and when the comments kept coming back, he deleted the video.
