Okay, before this turns into a Rant & Rave discussion, let me jump in with some positive thoughts:

Remember that Isaac was punished for using his powers to manipulate the story. He actually created an alternate universe where he had a happy ending and he magically forced the Apprentice to do what he wanted him to. Henry has done none of that. All of his involvement in Cinderella's story has been non-magical. I don't think Merlin would have a problem with that, since he's not abusing his powers in any way, shape, or form. He's risking his life, job, and reputation to help someone -- granted, it's basically because he thinks she's hot, so his motives aren't entirely pure, but I'd still consider that a heroic action. He hasn't messed Cindy's story up in any way -- he actually saved her both directly and indirectly by convincing her not to darken her heart and then later by bringing Regina in, who also convinced her to not darken her heart. All of the evidence towards him being non-heroic seems taken out of context to me.
