She doesn't care about other people (so much that when she acts contrary to that, it feels extremely OOC) and she doesn't care about the effects of her actions. All that matters to her is that she has the best time possible, and screw what the rest of the world thinks.
These are all traits of someone who is manic. Guess what? She's fucking manic all the time. It's not that she's a bitch, it's that she suffers from a severe psychological disorder. Also, it isn't like normal people don't act like this, too. Because of these traits, she's probably a more realistic representation of a human being than 99% of other anime characters.
Yuki's just a more likable character all around, IMO.
Yuki is only a more likable character if you are into submissive girls. Not that there is anything wrong with that. Most of Japan would agree with you. Personally, she seems awfully two-dimensional and boring. Without Haruhi or everyone else acting awesome, she would be even more boring and have even less to do.
