Emma would only want to counteract the sands' effect on her friends and family.

Besides, Guinevere was not ready to leave Arthur. If she was, then she would have left with Lancelot, and not made that deal with Rumplestiltskin. She choose duty and power over love and happiness, because she was desperate to fix her marriage. The sands' effect Guinevere that way, because she still had deep feelings for Arthur. Her husband may have been obssessive, but she was very clingy and deprived.... all of which are very unhealthy personality traits.
