Nope. I'am supplying a grammar nazi with ammos.
I would think "looks" could be either a "they" or an "it" in a conversation. No need to ignore the point of the comment to derail it about a difference between "it" and "they", yet here we are.

"Your looks are the most important thing about you."
"Is it though"

That's not being a grammar nazi, that sentence makes no sense.

This doesn't make sense as a response to what you bolded.

But yes, obviously her looks are what people seem to care about most. Which is just part of the deal, she knew it getting into the business. It's kinda lame, but also just the way these things work.

It actually makes perfect sense.

He is referencing “the most important thing”. Hence “it”

You are sticking to “her looks”. Which would require the use of “are”.
