It is canon as the writers have spoken. Plus, they showed it on the show, so there's no argument here. You can't ignore facts and hold theories over them. People theorized that Emma is secretly Maleficent's daughter and no matter how much they like it, it frankly isn't true.

Victorian England was frozen during the curse and that's that. Alice was 18sh before the curse as she met Cora and Jefferson and then she went back when they weren't there (aka the Dark Curse pulled Jefferson away and Cora went to SB as we see that when they went to SB).

Victorian England has magic as the rabbit made a portal. As far as we have learned and we can use common sense, Bae wished to go to a Land without Magic. By the way the show has traversed, there is only one world without magic.

All worlds with magic were frozen and the only one that didn't was LWM as we saw time go by and Emma grow up. We know FTL was frozen, we know Wonderland was frozen, we know that VE was frozen.....I spy a connection.
