Yeah, there are too many unknowns concerning the neutralizing items. We know everyone falls powerless to the "cuff", except Pan because he made it that way. From Dark Ones to others, none of them can escape it. Does that mean Pan is stronger than all of them XD

Ingrid used her magic when she was cuffed is likely because the spell is faulty. Apparently cuffing the hands mean you're powerless? Anyhow, Ingrid knew they were coming, so perhaps it was some sort of set up.

Regina not escaping is likely due to the fact that Rumple and the DO are stronger than Regina. At best, you're saying: Emma's magic was no match for Ingrid and Rumple's magic was more than a match for Regina. Could mean some things, but we don't really know spell specifics. At best, it would appear that Ingrid should be above Emma (season 4a) and Regina should be below Rumple/ any Dark One....which we know.
