It would be redundant (not that it has stop them) to have a self-serving master manipulator. That’s been a large chunk of their villains. She could be the rigid moralist whose doing as much damage as the villain, but she wouldn’t be the Big Bad Villain as Blue has history and longevity.

I agree it would have been great as a story idea, just deposing her as a deep-seated evil. I do think the best given what their focus was would have been to have made her the counter to Mr. Gold because it made little sense for the heroes to always go to him and his shady deals.
