So Rumple, by purifying his heart and killing himself ended the Dark One's Curse, just like Hook would have done in 5x11 if Rumple hadn't trick him. Yeah, but Dark Hook was killed with the Dagger, the one weapon which could kill the Dark One. Here the Dagger was completely ignored I assumed that it all happened at the same moment. Rumple making the ultiamte sacriface ends the Dark One Curse, so he's now mortal, and of course it also kills him. He didn't need the dagger in order to kill himself, because he wasn't the Dark One anymore. I don't know if I'm missing some pieces tbh.
