I don't care what the new canon is, as far as I'm concerned "Snow Falls" is still very much canon and the only thing Emma and Hook did in the past was let Zelena kill Marian and bring Elsa to the present. In fact, in rewatches, I skip from when Emma and Hook fall in the portal to when they're in Rumple's vault. Just 10 minutes and I can pretend they didn't ruin everything. I just like to think they went through the portal and landed right in the vault and just dragged Zelena-Marian back with them and Elsa.

This time travel was too powerful and even affected the whole show more than or equal to the Author's powers and he couldn't bring back the dead. Time travel was only to have Regina not kill Marian like she would have and instead have Zelena kill Mrian and......whatever, just OQ soap opera. Didn't help anything else reallly.
