There are a lot of flaws in your logic. I won't list them all, but mostly what I do seem is the most important.

First of all, you're trying to find logic where there is not. If there is one point that we all agreed since a moment, is that all DC are different and they are not always working the same. Not sure the writers are clear with themselves about this. Especially between the first and the third curse. So, what was working for the first DC may be different for the second one.

Then, why do we say the third DC is only a taxi, even contrary to the second one? Because, as you pointed it out yourself, there is nothing to break. This is perfectly clear right now, within the show. No TLK was needed for the third curse, which is the only clear point in the DC: a TLK to break it. The fact that yourself is saying that we don't need a "During Third Curse" box. That point was discussed a lot, for a moment during S5A, and we agreed on that. Nothing to break clearly means nothing cursed.

Now, we come to the Dreamcatchers. This is not like the potion that Zelena added to the cursed. Her potion added a property to the DC, the one to take away one year of everyone's memories. The potion was then a part of the DC, and was broken by how a DC is broken; a TLK, as it was a part of the DC. The dreamcatchers are NOT a part of the DC. They are side items used to work with the curse, without necessarily being a part of it. We see it. The dreamcatchers did not merge with the DC, they were apart from it, after everyone went back to SB. The memories were taken and absorbed by the dreamcatchers, as we see it in 510. They did not need to use a TLK (as it is needed for a DC) to get back their memories, just using the dreamcatchers. That's a proof that the DC was not involved in this part.

Finally, the last point. By your logic, we should give the BothCounterparts infobox to the Camelot characters, Henry and Hook. That is a problem. Because you would forget a lot of characters. By your logic, we need to also give this infobox to MM, David, Regina, Neal, Granny, Emma, etc... All the characters that the 3rd DC brought back to SB. Would be a problem.

So yeah, to make it easier, my suggestion is just to keep the current way. It was discussed quite a lot during S5A, and we had a consensus with this current agreement. It does reflect the reality of the show perfectly, it is quite easy to understand for most of the people and quite easy to use on the wiki. DatNuttyKid's point is definitely not perfect as I do think it ignores some important points of the show (especially regarding the dreamcatchers). As long as there is no curse to break, we can't say these characters are cursed. Quite simple. Plus, it'd make everything harder on the wiki for no real reason.
