As a hair-splitter myself, I will admit "appear" was not a good choice of words - since she was physically present.
Would you prefer "participate"?

I don't know how much of her not appearing on stage was a "choice", and I doubt you do either.
"Participate"? Well, the delegates "participate", even though they don't appear on stage. I confess I don't know what word is accurate, since I don't know what you're trying to say. If you're saying that she was present at the convention, and when it came time for the families of the P and VP nominees to gather on stage, she wasn't on the stage, then we agree.
The motivations for her non-appearance on stage at that time cannot be determined, as she doesn't grant interviews (and we can't know the motivations for that decision either.)
