He was never doing anything for himself but rather helping whoever he wanted to, whether it be the heroes or Gold and co. Ursula, Cruella, and Maleficent may have been following Gold's plan but they never behaved like his henchmen. Maleficent treated herself more like his partner, even altering their deal. While Cruella and Ursula also cared about their own plans and did whatever they coudl to ensure them. These two were also the most essential villains (well in the Queens/Gold group) in 4x11-413, being responsible for getting Gold into Storybrooke and reviving Mal. They could've very easily left Gold outside. He needed them. I agree with you to a point about Isaac, he was a wild card to a point, but then he became the villain. Manipulating people into trying to kill Henry and Regina made him a villain. Also, trying to kill Henry himself, made him a villain.

Oh, yeah, villain no doubt. I just don't consider him a primary villain that season. He was only a major threat in the finale.
