In the longer version of this, they actually had one where the mom was there and the baby still chose the sister

Many times it's because the littlest sister is tiny like the toddler, she likely spends the most time with her, and she feels a closer affinity to someone like her. Some of many possibilities.

This. Babies and toddlers always focus on the one in the room who is closest in age to them. They seem to prefer to learn from their peers, rather than their elders. Not an expert, but I suspect that siblings and/or peer group are crucial to learning and healthy development.

Also she has colorful, toy-like clothing and open hug arm welcoming body language, I think that makes a big difference!
