OTOH if you do like her, then you'll appriciate what she does, and the how and the why

It's all in the eye of the beholder.

You may have noticed that Shizune tends to have a "rules are for other people" mischievous streak.

On topic, I'd say that no, KS is not porn. The sex scenes are there for a narrative purpose, and each one speaks volumes about the relationship and the current sexual politics thereof. Yes, you can have the story without the sex scenes, and it will still be solid and coherent. The point is that the sex scenes aren't about seeing naughty bits. They're there, but they're not the key narrative point. Like if you were to focus on the teacups during the CG scenes with Lilly - they're there, and they're relevant tot he scene, but the CG is there for more reasons than just to see Lilly's teacups.

KS is a visual novel that contains erotic content. If you really don't understand how that's distinct from porn, I'm sure there are many people in the community who can direct you to an distinction between a porn VN and a VN that happens to have some sex scenes.
