I think i recall Stevie saying that she wont record a song the way she has to play it night after night after night unless they are notes she can sing every day. Like the same seemingly 8 note octave she has been using the last 10 years or so LIVE. She can sing those higher notes, she just prefers not to. Part of that is the slow loss of her higher non-falsetto range over the last 20 years and part a bit too much vocal training to be monotone and droning. We all know she can sing pretty and soft, but it is harder to do that and wears on the voice more than opening up the throat and singing from the diaphragm.
