Quite a common Fairy does help the audience understand what fuels a fairy's power, and gives us a bit more information about the Blue Fairy. It doesn't answer all the questions because we still don't know if a person is born a fairy or is it created. What I mean by created is that someone had turned a regular person into a fairy. If this was the case then I would agree with you that Blue Fairy does have some right to take Tink's power. Mind you I still think this is a bad call, but she does have the right of way.

If it is the case that a person is born a fairy than what Blue Fairy did was unspeakable. You know what having a fairy loose there wings is the equivalent of a violinist having his hands chopped off. In both these scenario there the question how would they provide for themselves can be brought up. This idea lays more toward the fairy than the violinist since they didn't know of any other life outside of being fairy. In alot of way they do loose a sense of identity, and when I consider that option then I can see difference to how one can view Blue's action.

I think things would have been different if Blue Fairy had only brought Tink back to where ever Fairy live. Where she and group of fairy deliberated over how to punish Tink for her actions. After a period of discussion it was decided that she should have her wings taken away. Unfortunately that wasn't how the episode played out, the Fairy over to a council, to whom after some discussion it was decided for Tink to was the the lead of a council of Fairy, and they decided to take away her wings in response to her action. Unfortunately that wasn't how the episode played out, and now we are left wondering was the Blue Fairy right.
