What I wanted to say is: Creators of the show chose a path in which all classic stories we know happened in the past but in different worlds. I see those worlds (EF, Wonderland, Neverland etc) as some kind of parallel dimensions. Since those stories happened in the past we are familiar with them and that's why contemporary characters - characters that were created for this show and live in present day Land Without Magic (Emma, Henry) can't be any of those classic characters. It's pretty much a canon now and I doubt they will change that direction. Making Emma to be Dorothy will rise many questions and I guess writers would rather avoid them. Plus a character has never been another named character. Rumple was called a beast and a crocidile, but those are not names, but rather insults. Regina maskqueraded as Ursala, but she is not actually her. Cora is the miller's daughter, but she is never named in that story, and also the Queen of Hearts, but that is a title not a name. So Emma and Dorothy being the same character is really out of the question for me, as those are both named characters.
