Huh? You can't have it both ways. Neither the fact that was a fake Holy Grail was the beating Heart of the first Titan was confirmed in the show either. When talking about the context of that scene, the significance of the moment was very important in the narrative that Rumple valued a chipped cup over THE Holy Grail. Robert Carlyle and another writer confirmed what we just witnessed onscreen in the audio commentary.

Just because you liked the convoluted storyline of Excalibur was originally the Holy Grail does not negate what was established in Skin Deep in regards to that very same item. As Jane admitted, they didn't even consider doing the Holy Grail storyline beyond that moment in the Skin Deep episode. Hence, retcon. Foreshadow??? lol. The continual steady lack of continuity is laughable. I can always count on OUAT for that.
