Take a look at these gallerys:

And then compare them to this:
https://www.flickr.com/photos/maudebardet/

Of course, both of those examples are not pure travel photography, but they are more-less documentry type of photography (including some street photos), where basically every shot is diffdifferent in that or another way. Every photo is interesting, creative, every photo is wisely selected to not duplicate much from each other.

Now hopefully You will understand what I was in mind saying that Mrs. Maude Bardet travel journalist photography is copy/paste. Same way of shooting over and over again. Completly lack of variety in anything

While offering subjective opinions, I'd say Maude's work is excellent and consistent. She's developed a style that someone would recognize in her images - no simple feat. Variety of for the sake of variety (whether in focal lengths, cameras, formats, etc.) can produce inconsistency and at worse, incoherence, unless it can be reigned in.
