Briar Rose and Aurora may be somewhat different takes, but they both wound up being the Sleeping Beauty. They were both cursed by Maleficent with a sleeping curse, until a prince woke them up. So in that respect they are similar to the two Cinderella's, as both will probably also share aspects of Cinderella. They live in the same universe. So, it's not about the books or the Authors. What Killian is trying to say is about different versions of characters which are based on the stories that the Authors wrote (or vice versa). Ursulas, Little Mermaids or Sleeping Beauties are not the quite examples for this Cinderella situtation.
