Nue is a different case. a nue is a known species of youkai, just one with inconsistent descriptions on their biology. A Tenkajin isn't a real species of Youkai.
Also, Nue would more likely revel in being seen as weird or mysterious. If anything, she'd probably be jealous of Tenkajin for being an actually unknown species.
A Tenkajin is an actual species of Youkai, though.
