Full of grace is indeed the real truth, but it falls short of the Greek. The Greek is virtually untranslatable without a whole lot of clumsy phrasing. There’s nothing wrong with “full of grace” but the attack cited by the OP claims that we base our dogma on the Latin, which is, due to the limitations of translation, deficient. Rather, we base our dogma on the Greek which is extremely compact and rich, in that single word kecharitomene.
I see what you’re saying it’s very true and we can notice the same difficulty with translations of languages that are even from the same family.
Alot has to do with the reader in the final analysis also, so overall context is of the utmost and in that we have the stronger support which protestantism has never been able to quite deal with about Mary. So I think the op has plenty of ways to clarify Acts 6 8 as not affecting Mary at all.
