Personally I find that Garrus is well done sidekick character. His charactre arc lets you bond with him and care for what happens with him and you can also feel he cares for Shepard.
Opposite to that is Miranda, the perfect plot related character. she is bonded not to Shepard but to the mission. So she's pretty great too in her way. My Sheps loves hating her and having to recognize she needs her at the same time.
Miranda is in a different situation than Garrus. Since Garrus was established in ME1 (And isn't a romance then), he's set as one of Shepard's friends from the get-go. Miranda was introduced in ME2, and is a romance. Her importance to Shepard depends on her relationship with him. It can go from loyal XO to lover (In my case).
So I can argue that Miranda is the most important person to Shepard.
Of course she can be. And also you could hate Garrus. I mean everything is possible as the player.
But its clear that Garrus was written to be a 'second shepard'. He ultimatly wants what Shepard wants. I find it well done and love having him around but i know others dont.
Miranda is written to have a plot relevance. And she is so well written that she makes sense either as a rival (if you dont like her renegade persona or her goals) or as and close relationship (if you do like her persona and her goals).
And the game lets you roleplay a sensical rival relationship with Miranda. Wether you like Garrus or not, your Shepard will always tear up at the end of the recruitment mission. Even as a fan of Garrus that is something that always bothered me.
