Likely, it is retcon, but it may be about intention. Snow and Charming, though reprehensible from our outside view, did not set out to hurt anyone. They wanted to save their child from darkness. I read somewhere that people think Snow reacted to the news the way she did because of Regina's role in her life. She saw Regina descend into darkness, from a good person to darkness.
