^^^This is very true.

I've always imagined that Regina's version of the Curse (the recipe she was given) was specific for her and her purposes. It did what she wanted and was driven by her high ambitions.

Snow's works in a similar way, imo. (It seems to me that she only need more basic ingredients, as she wasn't trying to do all the stuff Regina was). It esssentially "restored" Storybrooke as the town Snow wanted it to be, including all the people that "belonged" there (at least to her)

I try not to stress over all the details. Such a thing would keep me up at night! :D
