I understand your point, but there are still plot holes. Regina meets Hook because she wants to make a deal: he will kill Cora and she will bring him to a land where he could finally defeat the Crocodile. That's why the two of them (both in the EF that in the WR) know each other. At the beginning of 7x07 Wish Hook is sure that he is about to meet the Crocodile thanks to the Curse, so I assumed that he successfully respected his part of the deal but actually it could be that Wish Regina was defeated between the moment she offers Wish Hook the deal and the moment he actually would have gone to Wonderland in order to kill Cora... It's just a bit forced.
