I always took it as someone would use the Darkness for Light.

If Rumple really wanted to destroy the Darkness I don't understand why he doesn't use the Anti holy Grail. In Season 4 finale we already seen the Darkness can be stripped from someones body. The sorcerer apprentice did it with ease. If they would contain it in the Anti Holy Grail it would destroy it given the Anti Holy Grail destroys Magic.
