Besides that, I still like the idea of Emma being Scarlet or Anna in Hyperion Heights and being divorced from Rogers.

I definitely don't think Wish Hook would have been involved. Partially because the writers have said he was specifically introduced as a plot device to explain Emma's absence, but also because a lot of the plots with Wish Hook -- specifically with him and Rumple -- seem like they would make a lot more sense if it was OG Hook. I see Gothel separating Alice from Hook & Emma and keeping her in the Tower because she is the Guardian, and maybe Gothel was interested in her magic or something. But i don't think the Poisoned Heart storyline would've happened. 100% agree! They could probably have shifted the timeline around to age Alice up (considering tIMe in THe NeF rUNs FAsTer).
