I do think Eskaver has a point, in regards to whether they would have killed Hook off or not. Love him or hate him, Hook would have still had a large fanbase and the writers still enjoy writing for him. I think had Neal remained alive, they would have kept Hook along for the ride. Either SFer would have become endgame with Hook and Emma's relationship being merely platonic, or CSer would have still slowly happened even with Neal in the picture.
