Except... 霊長類 pretty much does mean "primate"... + humans are primates too anyway.
What has been lost, however, is the connotation/implication and nuance in language; they aren't specifically calling her a monkey/primate and certainly not in a racially-motivated sense. It's more like a poetic and indirect reference to the fact that she's an absolute specimen and apex example of a human being with a biological superiority and virility. Any potential subtext of being unsophisticated/an "animal" (we have this sentiment in English too) points to her /fit/ physique and physical prowess as a powerful fighter rather than her race.

So no, it's not mistranslated per se, more like inadequately contextualised

And yes, even with such comprehensive/verbose syntax, there's still a lot of this type of reading between-the-lines and subtlety to uncover when appreciating most JAV titles. It's not just about learning the grammar and vocabulary but engaging with more Japanese media as a whole to get a better idea of the implicit references

Also, as an aside, can someone repost the slampig tummy version of the monkey neuron activation picture? I forgot to save it. Thanks in advance!
