I think Ariel is a replacment for Aurora more so than Ruby because Ruby actress had to leave the show. It seems the writers introduce a new Disney Princess each season but only take the time to take care of one of them. Aside from Snow White as she is a main character they introduced Cinderella and Belle in season one but only developed Belle. Then in season 2 they added Aurora and Mulan but they seemed to focus more on Mulan than Aurora and now the focus is off of all of them and just on Ariel(at least as of now)
