Her saving Robin isn't something wrong, just that she is opening herself to darkness (somehow). Rumple himself freed all the kids and stopped the Ogres wars, but he became addicted to the power and abused it. It goes back to the phrase power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. What you say makes sense that no matter what magic you use it should be considered neutral cause you can use both light and dark magic for both good and bad things. For instance Emma using dark magic to heal Robin but then when she was the savior she used light magic to kill Cruella which she had every right to do so. It can be used as both but if you go by what the Blue Fairy says there is a difference like when they were all trying to find a cure to stop the Snow Queen's spell when Rumple entered the diner she told Rumple that they were using light magic then he replied well I can learn a thing or two. So I guess it really depends on the person who uses magic and how they use and what for. Some people there is a difference between light and dark and some there is not.
