Funnily enough, my friend and I were actually recently discussing that the Split Queen arc could have been better if itwas split Killian instead (not in purpose of course but maybe if Hyde forced him to split from his evil half).

They could have gone two ways with Split Queen to make it interesting:

-Do what they did with Jekyll and show that sometimes, people are just bad people. Have "good"  Regina revert back to being evil because she is a bad person. Which imo, would have made a lot of Regina's previous writing make sense.

-Have Regina actually develop and accept the Evil Queen and her baggage and karma as a part of her.

But instead there was a "I just needed to learn to love myself" and so both halves of Regina got a happy ending and Regina will continue to face no consequences for her actions.
