Here's a thought, guys.
Comparing Celestia and Luna, Luna is the stoic one, and Celestia is the more playful one. Luna seems to take her position as royalty very seriously, while Celestia prefers to be more casual. In fact, Celestia often acts in ways that suggest she doesn't quite fit in the princess role, since everyone always seems to be surprised when she shows mercy or sympathy, and we've seen her weird sense of humor. She messes with the Cakes, arranges to have the biggest social event of the year destroyed for her own amusement, and acts very differently when she is in private with Twilight, rather than in public. Contrasting them even further, Luna does things strictly for the sake of tradition, and Celestia clearly doesn't give a crap about tradition. Luna is all about maintaining a royal demeanor, and Celestia doesn't seem to be afraid to let her Serious Face drop.
It seems to me that Luna is a much better fit for the position as supreme leader of Equestria, and was probably expected to be the one to take power...right up until she turned evil and Celestia had to take over for both of them. Celestia was kind of forced into the job, if you think about it. It adds a whole other dimension to their relationship.
