This is the key part that a lot of people tend to mistake as full control. The shikigami isn't outright replacing the original being, but acts as an overlay that channels the master's power into the vessel and facilitates its use. It makes sense that Yukari would be uptight about Ran following orders as not to revert to a weaker state and waste that imbued power (and just for the sake of instilling obedience). Yes, the original personality may take a backseat at times, but it'd be dumb to claim the whole setup is a drag and drop affair.
Plus, Yukari isn't a slave driver just for shits and giggles. More like a very scrupulous programmer hellbent on debugging and making sure her code runs efficiently. But at the same time, she obviously values the versatility and wit that comes with a sentient shikigami, else she'd just stick to using minor animals like her crows.
