Mark my words
I was right about Hoshino's sleeping all day gimick being a way to sleep her depression away, and then years later we learned about her Yume trauma.
Makoto plays the clown but she's actually quite capable.
Makoto lowkey keeps the rivalry against Hina to keep balance among Gehenna's factions. She purportedly loses to Hina and plays the fool even harder to keep those warmongering Geheners, the same that want to unify Gehenna to conquer Kivotos under Makoto's lead, in check.
Unlike Hittler, Makoto knows warring against the world will lead to eventual demise, but the Pandemonium simpatizers are set dead on world domination (which is why they want Sensei on their side, but Makoto does jack shit by sending her laziest aide to "recruit" Sensei to her side).
Makoto also helped Hina during her Dress event, she used the goons to lure Hina into "stumbling" onto the old Piano at the abandoned school building.
During that same Event Makoto also created random silly problems for Hina to solve and make Hina shine even more - as in a girl that can do it all and still learn to play the piano within a week.
with Hina shining publicly as the only one that can stop the Great Makoto, Makoto holds the balance amid Gehenna's Chaos.

TLDR: Makoto loses to Hina on purpose to keep Gehenna's upper echelon on check. Makoto lowkey helps Hina while playing the fool to downplay herself.
