Agree. Maleficent and Lily are not important at all

In season 1 and 2 Maleficent was just because she is a well known character. But she didn't have an important role whatsoever

The whole "potential for darkness" thing was so stupid.

In 4B Snow couldn't use the magical tree because she was pregnant with Emma and Emma has the potencial darkness for being the product of true love. But that was never mentioned with baby Neal in 3B. Snow and Charming should have at least mentioned it since they know what happened with Emma. And even more, Snow found Glinda through the "pure heart" portal and she was pregnant with Neal, who technically also has the same "potenciall for darkness"
