To add to the discussion, I think it's also about the amount of transformation to be done by each character.

As Evil Queen, Regina was a murderous tyrant that couldn't let go of her revenge.

Rumplestilskin was a dark, manipulative coward who was willing to cast aside everything to find his son.

Killian Jones was a troubled rogue with an opportunistic streak, placing his revenge above everyone else.

Neal was a guy who began to despise magic and what his father became that his fear ended up ruining his life.

And many others...Some have larger transitions to make. There are peculiar writing decisions and thinks that should have been done better.
